It's time to snuff out these RINOs before they even start.
From a Neal Knox newsletter (emphasis mine)--
Former Sen. John Danforth's name is being floated as Attorney General in the Bush Administration.
SINK IT!
Danforth was in charge of the Waco cover-up. He ignored evidence that FBI and ATF had lied and distorted the truth, but did nothing to any of them. The only one prosecuted was and is Bill Johnston, who went overboard to prosecute the Branch Davidians, but committed the unpardonable sin of criticizing his own agency -- pointing out to Janet Reno that she had not been properly informed and that at least some claims of the Waco nuts were based on fact.
Remember, too, that Danforth, while Missouri Senator claimed to be a solid defender of the right to keep and bear arms -- until he announced his retirement, when he simultaneously blasted gun owners and gun ownership.
For George W. Bush to appoint Danforth as Attorney General
guarantees that Waco and Ruby Ridge will never be properly
investigated -- and odds are that it won't be no matter who is appointed AG.
Even worse, his appointment would send a message to
Federal law enforcement that they can do whatever they wish to the American citizens, without fear of retribution.

I can't swear that these addresses work (which I've picked up off the buzz off the net) but he needs to hear from us -- which is why I'm also using some of my own channels to get him the message.
Another name that's been circulating for various Bush posts in Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Ridge, whose appointment to anything -- particularly anything to do with law enforcement -- will bring Pennsylvania gunowners off the wall.
Last week two groups sued Gov. Ridge and the State Police
Commissioner for keeping records of gun purchases in direct
violation of Pennsylvania law.
In their long-simmering suit Allegheny County Sportsmen's
League and the Lehigh Valley Firearms Coalition charge that the state is maintaining a database of law abiding gun owners, despite a 1997 law that specifically prohibits such record-keeping for more than 72 hours.
In an October 6 letter to a state representative whose help
ACSL enlisted, the police commissioner acknowledged that state police have retained copies of firearms applications and sales records since 1933, although they had no authority -- prior to 1995 -- to keep them for more than six years.
