You Said:

I am not debating about whether slavery is wrong, which I believe is so, but I am debating that the church should be concerned with a persons soul, not necessarily their body.

For the sake of this thread, I agree that Wright’s words were taken out of context for a sensational telecast by ABC, an apparent supporter of Hillary’s candidacy.  And the link you furnished proves it.

For some trivia, are you aware that it was a Black, and former slave himself by the name of Anthony Johnson, who was responsible for the perpetual institution of slavery in this country?  Check out this link:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Casor


The case of Johnson v.s. Parker is indicative of the early slave trade with Africa. The African slaves were still considered to be a human beings who could have rights under law in the “known world”. This period did not last very long and gave way to the soulless mindless animal phase used to reinforce and justify the horrendous conditions to come in the 1700’s .

What is truly scary is Rev. Jeremiah Wright in a very clear manor explicitly stated the changes that the United States Of America
under went on the path from “SLAVERY TO THE PRESENT” and Rev. Jeremiah Wright repeatedly stated these changes were positive changes and that governments can change while God’s word is the invariant. Tell the Whole Story FOX! demonstrates how the laws of “man” are aligning themselves with God’s word over time. Yet the major media reporters missed these explicit statements indicating lack of English fluency or an intent to malign the character of Rev. Jeremiah Wright and Trinity United .

This vial and outrageous assault on Trinity United and Rev. Jeremiah Wright by Fox News can only be considered in the context of Fox News’s latest attempt to rewrite the history of President Clinton’s Administration’s efforts to deal with Usamah Bin Ladin . Now Fox News is complicit in the attempted smearing of Trinity United and Rev. Jeremiah Wright and Sen. Barack Obama .

I am beginning to see a pattern here looks like Fox News is the propaganda organ of the RNC (Republican National Committee) / National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) hate machine.

McCain did not spend over 20 years going to Robertson’s or Falwell’s Church! Get real, but when you called me a bigot you lost any creditability if you ever had any.



Words of wisdom from the spiritual advisors of the Republican Party

It may be a good idea to check out Sen. John McCain on the founder of this new age of Christian fundamentalism or so Jerry Falwell has lead us to believe. Question is Sen. John McCain in agreement with the teachings of Jerry Falwell ???


Everybody who is more than 15 years old should be aware that the Christian coalition and before that the Moral Majority have been the spiritual guide for Newt Gingrich George Walker Bush and Ronald Reagan along with VP. Dick Cheney
any body who was somebody in the RNC( Republican National Committee ) /Cato/Heritage /National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) bowed to Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson as they have been the leaders of the Republican’s born again Christian SADISTIC NE-CON EVANGELICAL ACTIVIST base. Here is some wisdom from Jerry Falwell



From Positive Atheism’s Big Scary List of Jerry Falwell Quotations



http://www.positiveatheism.org/hist/quotes/foulwell.htm

If you’re not a born-again Christian, you’re a failure as a human being._– Rev Jerry Falwell (attributed: source unknown)

This is probably as bad a day as the court has had on social issues since “Roe v Wade.”_– Rev Jerry Falwell, reacting to the Supreme Court’s ruling in the Texas sodomy case, “Lawrence v. Texas,” wherein the high court upheld an individual’s (or a couple’s) right to privacy; “It is a promise of the Constitution that there is a realm of personal liberty which the government may not enter,” said Justice Anthony M Kennedy, for the majority in an opinion “as broad in its constitutional vision as any ever issued by the court,” wrote Charles Lane for The Washington Post; in his dissent, Justice Antonin Scalia, an extremist Evangelical Christian, complained that the justices voting to uphold the right to privacy were creating a new constitutional right, that they were not upholding the Constitution, quoted from “Planned Parenthood Federal Action Report” (July, 2003)

I had a student ask me, “Could the savior you believe in save Osama bin Laden?” Of course, we know the blood of Jesus Christ can save him, and then he must be executed._– Rev Jerry Falwell, cited in Cary McMullen, “Falwell: Now Is the Time for Gospel,” in the Lakeland (Florida) Ledger (November 12, 2001), quoted from Randy Cassingham, This is True (18 November 2001). Falwell added: “We visit prisoners on death row, and some of them are saved, but we believe their sentences should be carried out because they have a debt to society.”

God continues to lift the curtain and allow the enemies of America to give us probably what we deserve._– Rev Jerry Falwell, blaming civil libertarians, feminists, homosexuals, and abortion rights supporters for the terrorist attacks of Tuesday, September 11, 2001, to which Rev Pat Robertson agreed, quoted from John F Harris, “God Gave US ‘What We Deserve,’ Falwell Says,” The Washington Post (September 14, 2001)

The ACLU’s got to take a lot of blame for this._– Rev Jerry Falwell, blaming civil libertarians for the terrorist attacks of Tuesday, September 11, 2001, to which Rev Pat Robertson again agreed, quoted from AANEWS #958 by American Atheists (September 14, 2001)

And, I know that I’ll hear from them for this. But, throwing God out successfully with the help of the federal court system, throwing God out of the public square, out of the schools. The abortionists have got to bear some burden for this because God will not be mocked. And when we destroy 40 million little innocent babies, we make God mad. I really believe that the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People for the American Way — all of them who have tried to secularize America — I point the finger in their face and say, “You helped this happen.”_– Rev Jerry Falwell, blaming civil libertarians, feminists, homosexuals, and abortion rights supporters for the terrorist attacks of Tuesday, September 11, 2001, quoted from John F Harris, “God Gave US ‘What We Deserve,’ Falwell Says,” The Washington Post (September 14, 2001)

I sincerely believe that the collective efforts of many secularists during the past generation, resulting in the expulsion from our schools and from the public square, has left us vulnerable._– Rev Jerry Falwell, after the 700 Club broadcast wherein he had blamed civil libertarians, feminists, homosexuals, and abortion rights supporters for the terrorist attacks of Tuesday, September 11, 2001, speaking to The New York Times, quoted from Dick Meyer, “Holy Smoke,” CBS News (September 15, 2001)

I put all the blame legally and morally on the actions of the terrorist, [but America’s] secular and anti-Christian environment left us open to our Lord’s [decision] not to protect. When a nation deserts God and expels God from the culture … the result is not good._– Rev Jerry Falwell, backpedaling amidst criticism of his statement blaming civil libertarians, feminists, homosexuals, and abortion rights supporters for the terrorist attacks of Tuesday, September 11, 2001, quoted from John F Harris, “God Gave US ‘What We Deserve,’ Falwell Says,” The Washington Post (September 14, 2001)

Pat, did you notice yesterday the ACLU, and all the Christ-haters, People For the American Way, NOW, etc. were totally disregarded by the Democrats and the Republicans in both houses of Congress as they went out on the steps and called out on to God in prayer and sang “God Bless America” and said “let the ACLU be hanged”? In other words, when the nation is on its knees, the only normal and natural and spiritual thing to do is what we ought to be doing all the time — calling upon God._– Rev Jerry Falwell, justifying the breech of Constitutional Separation of Religion from Government while blaming civil libertarians for the terrorist attacks of Tuesday, September 11, 2001, to which Rev Pat Robertson again agreed, quoted from AANEWS #958 by American Atheists (September 14, 2001)

I hope I live to see the day when, as in the early days of our country, we won’t have any public schools. The churches will have taken them over again and Christians will be running them. What a happy day that will be!_– Rev Jerry Falwell, America Can Be Saved, 1979 pp. 52-53, from Albert J Menendez and Edd Doerr, The Great Quotations on Religious Freedom

AIDS is not just God’s punishment for homosexuals; it is God’s punishment for the society that tolerates homosexuals._– Jerry Falwell (attributed: source unknown)

The idea that religion and politics don’t mix was invented by the Devil to keep Christians from running their own country._– Rev Jerry Falwell, Sermon, July 4, 1976

Good Christians, like slaves and soldiers, ask no questions._– Rev Jerry Falwell, quoted Freethought Today, December, 1999, cited by Anthony T. Podestra of People for the American Way in, Dietz and Holden, Satiricon, p 44; quoted from Steve Benson “Latter-Day Saint To Latter-Day Ain’t”; commemorating the “Tell It Like It Is” Freethought In Media Award, presented on November 5, 1999, by the Freedom From Religion Foundation; excerpted by PAM

If we are going to save America and evangelize the world, we cannot accommodate secular philosophies that are diametrically opposed to Christian truth … We need to pull out all the stops to recruit and train 25 million Americans to become informed pro-moral activists whose voices can be heard in the halls of Congress._ I am convinced that America can be turned around if we will all get serious about the Master’s business. It may be late, but it is never too late to do what is right. We need an old-fashioned, God-honoring, Christ-exalting revival to turn American back to God. America can be saved!_– Jerry Falwell, “Moral Majority Report” for September, 1984

It appears that America’s anti-Biblical feminist movement is at last dying, thank God, and is possibly being replaced by a Christ-centered men’s movement which may become the foundation for a desperately needed national spiritual awakening._– Jerry Falwell (attributed: source unknown)

There is no separation of church and state. Modern US Supreme Courts have raped the Constitution and raped the Christian faith and raped the churches by misinterpreting what the Founders had in mind in the First Amendment to the Constitution._– Jerry Falwell (attributed: source unknown)

The Bible is the inerrant … word of the living God. It is absolutely infallible,without error in all matters pertaining to faith and practice, as well as in areas such as geography, science, history, etc._– Jerry Falwell, Finding Inner Peace and Strength

But these things speak evil of those things, verse 10 [reading from Jude] which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves. Look at the Metropolitan Community Church today, the gay church, almost accepted into the World Council of Churches. Almost, the vote was against them. But they will try again and again until they get in, and the tragedy is that they would get one vote. Because they are spoken of here in Jude as being brute beasts, that is going to the baser lust of the flesh to live immorally, and so Jude describes this as apostasy. But thank God this vile and satanic system will one day be utterly annihilated and there’ll be a celebration in heaven._– Rev Jerry Falwell, “Old Time Gospel Hour” broadcast, March 11, 1984, quoted by Rev Jerry Sloan, “Is Jerry Falwell a liar?” Freedom Writer, September, 1994

The Jews are returning to their land of unbelief. They are spiritually blind and desperately in need of their Messiah and Savior._– Jerry Falwell, Listen, America!

Grown men should not be having sex with prostitutes unless they are married to them._– Jerry Falwell, on CNN’s Crossfire, May 17, 1997

I do not believe the homosexual community deserves minority status. One’s misbehavior does not qualify him or her for minority status. Blacks, Hispanics, women, etc., are God-ordained minorities who do indeed deserve minority status._– Rev Jerry Falwell, USA Today Chat, quoted from The Religious Freedom Coalition, “The Two faces of Jerry Falwell”

Dan Moldea, the lead investigator for Larry Flynt’s ongoing quest to uncover sexual indiscretions of Republican congressional members, has now admitted he was hired by the law firm defending President Clinton._– Rev Jerry Falwell, from “The Bizarre Flynt-Clinton Connection,” in the January 15, 1999, “Falwell Confidential” fax report to 162,000 members, referring to the firm Williams & Connolly. Dan Moldea responded, “This entire statement is false and misleading, reckless and malicious. It is a complete fabrication.” However, the San Diego Union-Tribune picked up the fabrication and ran it as fact. Quoted from The Religious Freedom Coalition, “The Two faces of Jerry Falwell.”

We’re fighting against humanism, we’re fighting against liberalism … we are fighting against all the systems of Satan that are destroying our nation today … our battle is with Satan himself._– Rev Jerry Falwell (attributed: source unknown)

Billy Graham is the chief servant of Satan._– Rev Jerry Falwell (attributed: source unknown)

The ACLU is to Christians what the American Nazi party is to Jews._– Rev Jerry Falwell (attributed: source unknown)
AIDS is the wrath of a just God against homosexuals. To oppose it would be like an Israelite jumping in the Red Sea to save one of Pharoah’s chariotters._– Rev Jerry Falwell (attributed: source unknown)

You’ll be riding along in an automobile. You’ll be the driver perhaps. You’re a Christian. There’ll be several people in the automobile with you, maybe someone who is not a Christian. When the trumpet sounds you and the other born-again believers in that automobile will be instantly caught away — you will disappear, leaving behind only your clothes and physical things that cannot inherit eternal life. That unsaved person or persons in the automobile will suddenly be startled to find the car suddenly somewhere crashes…. Other cars on the highway driven by believers will suddenly be out of control and stark pandemonium will occur on … every highway in the world where Christians are caught away from the drivers wheel._– Rev Jerry Falwell, in his pamphlet, “Nuclear War and the Second Coming of Christ,” quoted from Ronnie Dugger,”Does Reagan Expect a Nuclear Armageddon?” in Washington Post Outlook (April 8, 1984)

Here’s Pat Robertson

The 10 Stupidest Things Pat Robertson Ever Said

10) “Over 100 years, I think the gradual erosion of the consensus that’s held our country together is probably more serious than a few bearded terrorists who fly into buildings.” –Pat Robertson, on the dangers of judicial activism

9) “Lord, give us righteous judges who will not try to legislate and dominate this society. Take control, Lord! We ask for additional vacancies on the court.” –Pat Robertson

8) “Just like what Nazi Germany did to the Jews, so liberal America is now doing to the evangelical Christians. It’s no different. It is the same thing. It is happening all over again. It is the Democratic Congress, the liberal-based media and the homosexuals who want to destroy the Christians.

Wholesale abuse and discrimination and the worst bigotry directed toward any group in America today. More terrible than anything suffered by any minority in history.” –Pat Robertson

7) “I would warn Orlando that you’re right in the way of some serious hurricanes, and I don’t think I’d be waving those flags in God’s face if I were you, This is not a message of hate — this is a message of redemption. But a condition like this will bring about the destruction of your nation. It’ll bring about terrorist bombs; it’ll bring earthquakes, tornadoes, and possibly a meteor.” –Pat Robertson, on “gay days” at Disneyworld

6) “(T)he feminist agenda is not about equal rights for women. It is about a socialist, anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians.” –Pat Robertson

5) “I know this is painful for the ladies to hear, but if you get married, you have accepted the headship of a man, your husband. Christ is the head of the household and the husband is the head of the wife, and that’s the way it is, period.” –Pat Robertson

4) “I’d like to say to the good citizens of Dover: If there is a disaster in your area, don’t turn to God, you just rejected him from your city. And don’t wonder why he hasn’t helped you when problems begin, if they begin. I’m not saying they will, but if they do, just remember, you just voted God out of your city. And if that’s the case, don’t ask for his help because he might not be there.” –Pat Robertson, after the city of Dover, Pennsylvania voted to boot the current school board, which instituted an intelligent design policy that led to a federal trial

3) “God considers this land to be his. You read the Bible and he says ‘This is my land,’ and for any prime minister of Israel who decides he is going to carve it up and give it away, God says, ‘No, this is mine.’ … He was dividing God’s land. And I would say, ‘Woe unto any prime minister of Israel who takes a similar course to appease the E.U., the United Nations, or the United States of America.’ God says, ‘This land belongs to me. You better leave it alone.’” –Pat Robertson, on why Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon suffered a massive stroke

2) “Maybe we need a very small nuke thrown off on Foggy Bottom to shake things up” –Pat Robertson, on nuking the State Department

1) “You know, I don’t know about this doctrine of assassination, but if he thinks we’re trying to assassinate him, I think that we really ought to go ahead and do it. It’s a whole lot cheaper than starting a war … We have the ability to take him out, and I think the time has come that we exercise that ability. We don’t need another $200 billion war to get rid of one, you know, strong-arm dictator. It’s a whole lot easier to have some of the covert operatives do the job and then get it over with.” –Pat Robertson, calling for the assassination of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez

Bonus Stupid Quote:

“Wait a minute, I didn’t say ‘assassination.’ I said our special forces should ‘take him out,’ and ‘take him out’ can be a number of things, including kidnapping.” –Pat Robertson, clarifying his call to assassinate Hugo Chavez

Extra Bonus Stupid Quote:

“Is it right to call for assassination? No, and I apologize for that statement. I spoke in frustration that we should accommodate the man who thinks the U.S. is out to kill him.” –Pat Robertson

The L.A. Times reported today that one of the film’s producer-writers is certain that: “Powerful forces are out to protect Bill Clinton’s presidential legacy and shield Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton from any potential collateral damage in her bid for the White House,” by burying the DVD of “The Path to 9/11.”


The Times quotes one of the film’s producers saying that he was told by an ABC honcho: “If Hillary weren’t running for president, this wouldn’t be a problem.” The DVD would be out.


LIBERAL CENSORSHIP


Bill Clinton told Chris Wallace, at least I tried to kill bin Laden. But don’t forget that the head of the bin Laden group at the CIA, Michael Scheuer, says no he didn’t.


BILL CLINTON IS A LIAR

For both Bill and Hillary, the uncomfortable question is: Is there still a cover-up in play over moments in the Clinton administration when if someone with some guts had been in charge bin Laden would have been dead years before 9/11?


So you think that you can re-write history with FOX ? FOX is the net work that covered the White House meeting between Sen. Trent Lott and Newt Gingrich and President Clinton . After which Newt Gingrich promised to ignore any distractions like Usamah Bin Ladin and focus on the important issues before congress like the sperm stains on Monica Lewinsky’s dress. Here is what the RNC’s Talking points were in congress


National Security


President Clinton was trying to Protect The United States of America from Usamah Bin Ladin and Al-Qaida
In 1997-98. What was the RNC hate machine trying to do ? President Clinton was trying to kill Usamah Bin Ladin and destroy his organization by cutting off it’s funding and tracking the flow of cash to Usamah Bin Ladin. President Clinton was stopped cold by a congress that was watching too many movies….In their own words from www.liberalslikechrist.org.

  • The Republican cry of “Wag the Dog”
    Originating from a 1997 movie, Wag the Dog was a phrase used by the right to suggest Clinton’s air strikes were driven by ulterior motives in an effort to distract the public. Some examples below:

    • Rep. Jim Gibbons (R-NV): “‘Look at the movie Wag the Dog. I think this has all the elements of that movie,’ Rep. Jim Gibbons, R-Nev., said. ‘Our reaction to the embassy bombings should be based on sound credible evidence, not a knee-jerk reaction to try to direct public attention away from his personal problems.’” [Ottawa Citizen, 8/21/98]
    • Sen. Arlen Specter (R-PA): “There’s an obvious issue which will be raised internationally about the response here as to whether there is any diversionary motive involved. … I have deliberated consciously any references to Ms. Monica Lewinsky, but when you ask the question in very blunt terms, the president’s current problems have to be on the minds of many people.” [CNN, 8/20/98]
    • Then Sen. John Ashcroft (R-MO): “‘We support the president out of a sense of duty whenever he deploys military forces, but we’re not sure - were these forces sent at this time because he needed to divert our attention from his personal problems?’ Ashcroft said during the taping of a TV program in Manchester, N.H.” [St. Louis Post-Dispatch, 8/21/98]
    • Rep. Pete Sessions (R-TX): “I’m very supportive of the strike that has happened, but I will tell you that the timing is very questionable. This was the day that Monica Lewinsky has gone back to the grand jury, evidently enraged. Certainly that information will be overshadowed.” [Dallas Morning News, 8/21/98]
    • Then Sen. Dan Coats (R-IN): “Coats (R-IN), a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, said in a statement, ‘While there is clearly much more we need to learn about this attack and why it was ordered today, given the president’s personal difficulties this week, it is legitimate to question the timing of this action.’” [CNN, 8/20/98]
    • Rep. Dave Weldon (R-FL): “‘The obvious question is, are the two connected?’ asked Rep. Dave Weldon (R-Fla.), who chairs the National Security Committee’s research subcommittee. ‘That’s the unthinkable, and I would hope it would never occur in America, but I can tell you, a lot of people are wondering about it today.’” [Los Angeles Times, 8/21/98]
    • Then Rep. Bob Barr (R-GA): “All I’m saying is if factors other than good intelligence, military necessity, being prepared for the consequences entered into it, then it is wrong, and it appears that one of those factors that may have entered into it is to take something that could have been done a week ago and do it today in an effort to divert some attention.” [Fox News, 8/20/98]

    Here is the RNC leadership in action….


      The RNC hate machine was gearing up for a KILL . Newt Gingrich and Ralph Reed and the Christian Evangelicalized US House of Representatives were the ones who put Monica Lewinsky first in their agenda this is ( or I should say was the problem ). The US House of Representatives was being driven by the likes of Tom Delay and….

      • Sen. John Ashcroft ( 08/20/1998) the Missouri Republican, gospel singer and lay preacher who would be president — called for Clinton to resign. “The country cannot and should not be forced to engage issues with a discredited president who cannot be completely trusted,” said the Christian right’s point man in the Senate.1.
      • Rev. Louis P. Sheldon, chairman of the Traditional Values Coalition, is profoundly interested in which course Congress takes. He heads a Washington political action organization that seeks to turn churches into electoral machines. The morning after Clinton testified before the federal grand jury and later addressed the nation, Sheldon met with House Speaker Newt Gingrich and came away feeling confident that Clinton would face a harsh judgment.

        “I believe Congress will act when they have the document in their hands,” Sheldon says, implying that Gingrich anticipates enough incriminating material from Starr to warrant impeachment hearings, at the least.

        But what if the House decides not to act in a way that satisfies Sheldon and other devout Christian activists?

        “We would need to use that to bring to Congress new members who are committed to moral values and beliefs,” says Sheldon. “It would have an immediate impact on upcoming Senate and House races.” 1

      • Sheldon’s warning may not be an empty threat.

        The Traditional Values Coalition represents 40,000 churches across the nation, according to Sheldon. He says they are wired to his national headquarters by an online fax system that pumps out position papers and exhortations on issues involving homosexuality, abortion and now the Clinton investigation as it reaches Congress.

        “We want our people to turn out to vote,” Sheldon says.

        Sheldon is hardly a lone actor. He’s one of the leaders of the new religious right that’s taking over where Jerry Falwell left off. Its leaders include Gary Bauer and James Dobson, leader of Focus on the Family, a $112 million-a-year ministry in Colorado Springs, Colo. Dobson reaches from 3 million to 5 million listeners a day by radio. The new religious right leaders make Falwell look like a benign country preacher.

        Dobson’s burgeoning evangelical ministry is untested in electoral politics, but his power is evident. Shortly after Dobson came to Washington earlier this summer, Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott called homosexuality a sin and compared it to alcoholism. Then bills started moving through Congress that would overturn Clinton’s executive order barring discrimination against homosexuals in federal hiring; another would deny federal funds to cities that require specific employer benefits to domestic partners. Dobson has sent nine priorities to Congress that would strip funding for Planned Parenthood, ban human cloning and fetal tissue research and eliminate the National Endowment for the Arts1.

      This is just a small sampling of the SADISTIC NE-CON EVANGELICAL ACTIVISTS that were frothing at the “bit” to devour Monica Lewinsky and President Clinton. This is what stopped President Clinton’s progress in reforming our intelligence agencies and dealing with Usamah Bin Ladin. George Walker Bush had nothing to do with this convening of the GRAND INQUISITORS.

      This sick GOP perversion of congress is the opening that Usamah Bin Ladin took advantage of on 9/11.

    Is There A 9/11 Cover Up Going On At Fox News

    September 27th, 2006

    Ailes: `An assault on all journalists’
    By DAVID BAUDER, AP Television Writer
    1 hour, 14 minutes ago



    http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060927/ap_en_tv/tv_fox_clinton_1

    NEW YORK - Fox News chief Roger Ailes says former
    President Clinton’s response to Chris Wallace’s question about going after Osama bin Laden represents “an assault on all journalists.”

    Ailes said Clinton had a “wild overreaction” in the interview, broadcast on “Fox News Sunday.” Hundreds of thousands of people subsequently watched clips over the Internet, with Fox foes rallying behind Clinton.

    “If you can’t sit there and answer a question from a professional, mild-mannered, respectful reporter like Chris Wallace, then the hatred for journalists is showing,” Ailes said in an interview with The Associated Press on Wednesday. “All journalists need to raise their eyebrows and say, `hold on a second.’”


    Mr. Ailes I put this question to you did your attempts to purge the Fox news archives of any embarrassing news about 9/11 begin here…..???

    • “We report, you decide.”
      Fox News Channel slogan.

      “Roger E. Ailes, a media coach for Bush’s father and now chairman of the Fox News Channel, sent a confidential communication to the White House in the weeks after the terrorist attacks. [Chief political aide Karl] Rove took the Ailes communication to the president. ‘His back-channel message: The American public would tolerate waiting and would be patient, but only as long as they were convinced that Bush was using the harshest measures possible,’ Woodward wrote. He added that Ailes, who has angrily challenged reports that his news channel has a conservative bias, added a warning: ‘Support would dissipate if the public did not see Bush acting harshly.’”

    Clinton presses for anti-terrorism tools
    Congress agrees tougher measures needed



    http://www.cnn.com/US/9607/29/clinton.terrorism/index.html


    WASHINGTON (CNN) — President Clinton asked Congress Monday to put more teeth in a tough new anti-terrorism law, and won broad agreement but no specific commitments from Republican lawmakers….

    ….Flanked by Republican and Democratic leaders of the House and Senate, President Clinton opened the meeting by saying, “You can see that when we are attacked, whether it’s from within or without, we come together and that’s what we’re doing here.” (191K AIFF or WAV sound)….

    ….During a photo opportunity before the meeting, House Speaker Newt Gingrich, R-Georgia, told Clinton, “We look forward to having a serious discussion here about how we can work with you to continue to strengthen our ability to deal with these kind of people.” (254K AIFF or WAV sound)….


    Does any body remember this speech by President Clinton ???

    Good afternoon. Today I ordered our Armed Forces to strike at terrorist-related facilities in Afghanistan and Sudan because of the imminent threat they presented to our national security.

    I want to speak with you about the objective of this action and why it was necessary. Our target was terror. Our mission was clear, to strike at the network of radical groups affiliated with and funded by Usama bin Ladin, perhaps the preeminent organizer and financier of international terrorism in the world today.


    Oh the great divide that Monica Lewinsky hath wrought. Poor Monica Lewinsky tripped over Linda Tripp and fell into Ken Starr’s web and was eaten by the RNC and had her sex life regurgitated all over the evening news.

    All in all I think President Clinton and his Administration did all they could with the likes of Newt Gingrich hunting him in the US House of Representatives .

    ABC Lies About President Clinton And 9/11

    September 6th, 2006

    Posted 9/6/06 7:36 PM

    The RNC /Cato/Heritage alliance is trying to hide the fact that President Clinton called Sen. Trent Lott and Newt Gingrich to the White House to talk about the Usamah Bin Ladin threat. After the meeting with President Clinton both Newt Gingrich and Sen. Trent Lott held a press conference out side the White House. During this press conference Newt Gingrich stated that the Republican congressional leadership would not be distracted by terrorism and the Usamah Bin Ladin threat. Newt Gingrich said the focus would remain on Monica Lewinsky and the RNC impeachment drive . Seams that sperm stains on Monica Lewinsky’s dress were more important to the RNC congressional leadership than Usamah Bin Ladin . By the way President Clinton tried on two (2) occasions to kill Usamah Bin Ladin by himself President Clinton wanted help from congress but they were too busy investigating “unique identifying characteristics” of President Clinton’s penis. What ever turn you on.
