Republicans fought against 1996 Terrorist Bill
Now the country is being warned that ammonia nitrate could be the explosive used in terrorist act this summer. Local authorities are being encouraged to step up surveillance of train and bus transportation this summer.

In 1996, the Republican Party fought President Bill Clinton when Clinton encouraged the Congress to pass an Anti-Terrorist Act. Senator Orrin Hatch of Utah called it a "a phony issue."

Clinton and the Democrats were unable to overcome the Republican party and their fat-cat chemical benefactors. So now we are left vulnerable to something that could have been fixed back in 1996 if the Republicans had not once more been on the take.

1. Kerry needs to produce a commercial with this.


He has been nearly invisible and he needs to address the flip flopping charges by pointing out some flip flopping on the Republican's part.

2. I will never forgive Orrin Hatch for his putting down of women...
...during the 1991 Anita Hill hearings. The women would rather be watching their soap operas, Jeez, what an idiot.

7. This is important because...
It is not enough to just get rid of George W Bush, we must change this radical right Congress that has America by the throat. Gasping for air, America must get rid of this Congress.
