- This is one of those great misleading phrases. "A Clinton campaign
- contributor." As if half the people in the country weren't contributors
- to one campaign or the other. You're trying to make it sound like he
- worked for the Clinton campaign, which would be different. If you can't
- refute the facts, attack the messenger. Like Kinsley's article on the
- 128 taxes lie.
-
- And I still haven't seen the evidence that Walsh is off sleeping
- somewhere while his subordinates are trading arms for hostages and
- diverting money to the contras without his knowledge -- oops, sorry,
- wrong Republican -- I mean, while his subordinates are indicting
- Republicans without his knowledge.

-
- I dunno; somehow I see a difference between releasing information that was
- confidential and releasing information that was going to be released anyway.
-
- But then again, I don't see "Democratic fingerprints" all over this, nor
- do I see Black Panthers coming from Canada to kill me. Must be
- LiberalMediaBias.
-
- And you guys still haven't been able to refute the information which
- proved Bush was lying. I wonder why...
