Republicans, Democrats, Communists, Creationists, and others (don't want to overburden the net with a complete list of fanatic types) seem to have one thing in common: they see what they want to see and nothing else. Well, let me join the list of those who have cited the federal law that caused Tricky Dick to set up (and, don't forget, accept) his pardon: The one that would have put him behind bars: The big one: Obstruction of justice. This is a felony. A federal crime. The one nobody has every mentioned before (any more lies?) We won't even give serious mention to common little laws that would have sent any one of us up the river. Like conspiracy to commit burglary - Danial Ellsburg and well as Watergate; misappropriation of funds, abuse of power, etc,etc. Unfortunately for those who cheered when Kennedy was murdered, there are a whole lot of us who do not forget. Not all the lies in your arsenal will make us forget. As for this being Democratic rhetoric let me say this: I used to think anyone would be better then Ronny, until I got a good look at Fritz. I thought that the Democrats could be counted on to elect a fool, and the Republicans could be counted on to elect a crook. The Republicans have done well in keeping up their side, but the Democrats seem to be going overboard, trying to elect a sleaze as well as a fool. This election should serve to totally disgust the nation. Maybe something good will come of it. -- Michael Ward, NCAR/SCD UUCP: {hplabs,nbires,brl-bmd,seismo,menlo70,stcvax}!hao!ward BELL: 303-497-1252 USPS: POB 3000, Boulder, CO 80307
