SLEMMER--OPEN MOUTH, INSERT FOOT.

I love it when people act snotty and informed and then you end up saying something absolutely wrong and ignorant. Case it point, your statement:

I hope you do more research on your investments than you apparently do on national topics.
<sigh> One more time, then....
Here is a list of FELONY CONVICTIONS by Kenneth Starr and Robert Fiske so far.


Almost all of the people you listed were not investigated, indicted, or prosecuted by Kenneth Starr or Robert Fiske. Starr was responsible for the Arkansas convictions (ooo, there's a real gallery of rogues), but Jones, Lum, Lum, Tamraz, Douglas, Lake, Blackley, and William and Schaffer (real household names there) all had separate investigations. The campaign finance investigation for example is being run by Janet Reno herself (how did you not know that, given all the GOP howling about it). If you really want to add up all the dollars spent on all these investigations, you'd probably be well in excess of $200 million if you include all the other investigations that were shut down without indictment. All in all a sorry bunch of prosecutions--which you further spotlighted with your pompous misstatements.

Doughboy.

<< Where do you people keep coming from? >>

We are people that don't believe in basing Executive policy on the reading of tea leaves.

We are people that don't believe in selling weapons to Iran, a country that wants to destroy the U.S., and then using that money in direct violation of the laws of this country.

We are people that can see behind a sneaky, unAmerican plot, by the Republican Party, and their "witch doctor" backers, that seeks to remove a democratically elected President from office, by any means possible, including entrapment.

Where do we come from? Why, we are your fellow Americans, who believe in fairness and decency. If you want to know more about us, watch for us at the voting booths this November.
