That is an EXCELLENT quote, and one that will prove to haunt him even further in the days and weeks ahead.

Clinton is toast
and the sooner he leaves the oven,
the less stench of burning bread there will be in the kitchen!

Nice work, Scoop Award Reporter, NetSurfer!!!

The bridge to the 21st century - off-limits

By Lewis J. Goldberg
web posted January 31, 2000

While we have been told that the 'era of big government is over,' we, nevertheless seem to have too much freedom on our hands, thus the new usurpations. On December 31, 1999 the documents of martial law were drafted and laid out on a table in the White House, ready for Clinton's signature. Y2K turned out to be the biggest dud-of-a-New-Year's-eve there ever was, and our dictator-in-waiting went to sleep, downtrodden and dejected. Even the spin-meisters of the regime could not make anything out of the non-disaster. Not one to be put down for long, Clinton went to work on his 'Plan B,' to take over a little bit at a time.

Environmentalism has its origins with conservative politics. We all know that Teddy Roosevelt, a Republican, started the National Parks System as a way to preserve our wilderness heritage, but never did he envision that his parks would be used as a tool to limit freedom. The original intent was that we do not turn the entire nation into a parking lot (or its contemporary equivalent.) The 40,000,000 acres recently moth-balled will never be available for road-building, natural resources, or even a snack-bar for tourists...in fact, there will be no tourists. If you want to see this land you'll have to take an airplane. Even so, it's not these 40 million that are the real concern, it's the land owned by ranchers, farmers, speculators, and anyone else...right down to the (cont)
