Gus > Unlike 911, the Madrid bombings, and the London bombings, there was NO follow-up to the OKC outrage! Yes, there was no apparent follow-up to the OKC bombing, in fact, the right wing militias simply "evaporated into thin air" after the event. Somehow one didn't hear about them again. But I'm not going to argue about it because I don't know enough nor have I speculated enough about it. I am sufficiently satisfied, however, that explosives were placed in the building and that the authorities knew about in advance. As you suggest, OKC may not have been a "black op" to discredit the right wingers and, indeed, Clinton, may not have known about it. But I am certain it was about something other than McVeigh & Co making a memorial to WACO and we don't know the whole story?

Gus > Your relentless attempts at analogizing the leftist/liberal administrations to their rightwing counterparts don't add up Try this one for size. centredaily.com >>Top Democrats won't attend anti-war rally in Washington Spokesmen for the Democrats who are skipping the anti-war event all said they had schedule conflicts. But some leading anti-war activists aren't buying it. "There are a lot of people here who are wondering, where are the Democrats?" said Tom Andrews, a former Democratic House member from Maine who's now the national director of Win Without War, one of several groups that are organizing three days of protests against the war in Washington starting Saturday. "The Democratic Party has an identity crisis on this issue. We need voices. We need leadership," Andrews said. "But fear is driving them." The rally comes at a time when a growing number of Americans want a timetable for withdrawing U.S. troops from Iraq, a proposition that both President Bush and many leading Democrats reject.<<
