All good news on the crime front [all during the Clinton years BTW]....but notice [click on White House link] the most recent date for FBI reporting on crime to the White House sic... 28 Oct 2002

Tuesday, October 29, 2002; Page A02

I wonder if the FBI provided two reports to the White House, one dated 28 Oct, 4:00 PM and the second one dated 28 Oct, 4:01 PM with a cover note from Ashcroft "You pick".......HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

If you try to click on the White House links for additional detail...all the links are broken.....URLs not found...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
