Caspar Weinberger: Shoulda Done Time for Iran-Contra |
|
Edited on Sun Jun-06-04 04:25 PM by Labor_Ready
no slouch in the fundie department himself, Weinberger once addressed students at Harvard thusly: 'I have read the Book of Revelation, and, yes, I believe the world is going to end - by an act of God, I hope - and every day I think that time is running out.' This from the guy with a finger on the nuclear trigger.
Recall too that he was rescued from a pound-you-in-the-ass federal prison only by a Christmas-eve presidential pardon (Bush I - natch).

You can alert on it and ask the moderator to move the thread.
On edit: I'd like to see the threads kept all together. :)

3. But he was PARDONED by 41 |
|
Piece of shit. People got pissed at Clinton for pardoning Rich but the 41 pardon of Casper was by far worse.
