I went looking for this AssKraft quote and found just what I was looking for on Lush Limbaugh’s website. mjh
From Rush’s Sack of Shit™: NPR on Rush: Shades of OK City
ASHCROFT: Full disclosure compels me to inform you that the author of this memoranda is a member of the commission.
TOTENBERG: That member, of course, was Jamie Gorelick. Within 48 hours House GOP leader Tom DeLay and House Judiciary Committee Chairman James Sensenbrenner were calling for Gorelick’s resignation and conservative talk shows were taking up the battle cry.
RUSH ARCHIVE: Who are the Clinton people? Who were they, Jamie Gorelick, Clinton, Gore, all these people, they are sixties relics. These are people who grew up hating the FBI. These are the people who gave law enforcement the name ”pigs.” And they now are in charge of it when Clinton assumes office? And what’s the first thing they do? Handcuff the FBI.
GORELICK: After John Ashcroft testified, there was an escalation. … Someone called the house and threatened to blow it up and blow me up.
TOTENBERG: FBI agents were soon swarming over Gorelick’s house and office. She had received hate mail at the office, she says, as have other commissioners but it had suddenly intensified.
Notice how Lush explicitly blames Clinton for 9/11 but takes no responsibility for his role in rabble-rousing. Of course, you don’t need to take responsibility for anything when you are doing god’s work — ask Bush or Bin Laden. mjh
Here’s another example of the peaceful rhetoric of the Radical Right:
”Other than assassination, all we can do is censure her,” committee chairman Richard Gibbs said before the vote. The resolution of censure says the clerk ”has brought disgrace to the party as a whole.” The Albuquerque Journal Online [What did Sandoval County NM Clerk Victoria Dunlap do — lie to the country?]
I am becoming a slave to the hypocrisy and insanity of these mindless
old men in government.
Please, may I wake up from impending doom: our future? I hope I someday have the power to stand up to the
insanity eye for an eye.
They let the murderers walk, and imprison the kind minds of earth. I love America, but I hate the state of the
union. There are countless freedom fighters rolling in their graves, and locked in cells. IMPEACH ASHCROFT!!!!!!!!!!!
