And what might that be?

Post #40,497 by jb4 5/30/02 9:04:08 AM 5/30/02 9:12:32 AM Reply	And what might that be? There seems to be ample evidence that Ashcroft stopped flying commercial for reasons >other< than the increased threat of hijacking [...] And what might that be, Bill? In all the reports linked to by that wonderful [link\|http://www.buzzflash.com/contributors/2002/05/23_Bush_Knew.html\|rant Silverlock referenced], nobody anywhere mentioned the reason that Ashhole started charging fishing trips to the General Populace. In fact , in the CBS news story, AshHole stated he [link\|http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2001/07/26/national/main303601.shtml\|"didn't know why" he was flying a NASA plane]. So what insider information do you have that we don't? Care to share with the class? Edit notes: Added actual links. jb4 "I remember Harry S. Truman's sign on his desk. 'The buck stops here.'

Post #40,569 by jb4 5/30/02 2:38:44 PM Reply	C'mon Bill..stop shoveling straw Were you to have tracked down the link, you would have seen several quotes attributed to "terror-terrified Lord Protector John Ashcroft" (as so aptly dubbed by [link\|http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/6/25508.html\| Thomas C. Green of the Reg]). No mention of Dan Rather anywhere. How is it that when ttLPJA's lips move, you think that Dan Rather is speaking? Hope that pitchfork does not give you blisters.... (oh, and lay off the 'shrooms, OK?) (I propose to refer to Ashhole from this point forward as ttLPJA. Thanks, Thomas!) jb4 "I remember Harry S. Truman's sign on his desk. 'The buck stops here.'

Post #40,590 by bepatient 5/30/02 4:00:14 PM Reply	The latest incarnation... ...of the story is that Ashcroft has launched a smear campaign against Rather for stating that >unsubstantiated< story...and then following it up by repeating it the following morning in an interview with Don Imus. Yea boy. Take the ball and run with it, I suppose. Ain't no straw here...though I suppose talking about the same story from more than one source may almost qualify. The story...no matter the source...is unsubstantiated rumor. The official response is that there were personal threats against Ashcroft. No surprise there...considering his amazing popularity;-) He said, she said. Sams shit...different day.

Post #40,619 by jb4 5/30/02 7:12:58 PM Reply	Yeah, except for one thing: The "he" who said it was ttLPJA hisself. Read the link, awready! jb4 "I remember Harry S. Truman's sign on his desk.

Post #40,641 by bepatient 5/30/02 9:44:15 PM Reply	I read them. He said his security people told him to not fly commercial. Justice stated (in the other link) that it was due to threats against his person. Rather said it was because >he< (Ashcroft) knew of the hijackings. Ashcroft said >last July< that he didn't know why...it was his security teams job to make those assessments. And your point???
