1. What are you trying to say? (If anything.)
Edited on Thu Apr-17-08 11:15 AM by JDPriestly
If it is about the Greenberg settlement, I agree that is absolutely a miscarriage of justice. Probably legal, but should be investigated by Congress.

Is this what you mean?

On April 2, 2005, Norquist married Kuwait-born Samah Alrayyes, who until then had been the director of the Islamic Free Market Institute. She is a CEO of her own communications firm and formerly a Public Affairs Specialist for Arab and Muslim outreach at the Bureau of Legislative and Public Affairs at USAID.<22>

This is from a link I reached by going to your first link and looking in the right column. It is from a Wikipedia entry on Norquist. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grover_Norquist

2. Just keeping an eye on this operation
Some of the links have a graphic showing when people were convicted/plead when they started serving WHERE they are serving.

Just keeping it out there.
