Panama

Full Story

Now, I'm not sure what relevance this article has to us as marijuana users, but since it mentions that John Ashcroft has disqualified himself from the investigation I figured it deserved discussion.

Ashcroft has an oblvious conflilct of interest, perhaps he'll have to resign, which would be a good thing in my opinion.

When was the last time we had a president that WASN'T involved in some sort of ****ed up scandal?

top aides walks over to the Reflecting pool and blows his brains out?Remember?One of the people that was involved in Whitewater?
Then remember that several boxes of papers concerning Whitewater, that the Clintons had, just happened to dissapear.
Then, all of a sudden ,they are found in a closet, in the Whitehouse ,that had been searched three or four times,then one of the Clintons just happened to stumble across them in the closet.
There ain't a damn one of them honest enough to call them selves a man,or the best way to describe a politician;if he's talking,you know he's lying.

Yeah, exactly. That's why what I really meant was that it isn't just a republican tradition, as mama implied. It's a Republi-Crat tradition ;-)
I bet Nader would have told enron to phukK off ;-)

It certainly does look as if there's a CYA situation going on here, but as usual we, the people, won't get the whole story until it's history. It's just my opinion, but I suspect Mr. Ashcroft got substantially more in the way of "campaign donations" than he reported and that's why he disqualified himself from the investigation.

Clintons scandals (like Whitewater and drug smuggling in Mena Arkansas) are childs play to what the Bush family has done in the past.
Enron is just the tip of the iceberg for Dubya and friends.
