Something "fishy" about the FBI eavesdropping on Philly mayor??
Some "newsperson" mentioned it on one of the talk shows this AM but I don't recall who it was?? But it's noteworthy that the Mayor or one of his staff discovered the 'wire' in his office. The FBI said he was not a "target". But they wired him anyway? Is this really just an exercise by the new Homeland Security? What do they suspect the Mayor of doing? I wonder if this is simply Ashcroft and Ridge gone wild??

1. John Street is the Fishy One
OK, why can't you people just accept that Street is involved in a criminal activity? Why does everything have to be a conspiricy? My gosh, what crybabies we have here. No wonder you democrats got beat in California. You just don't get it at all. Street is involved in dirty activities of his own. So, like it is OK to give a no-bid contract to his brother for a million bucks a year? Or, it is OK to fix parking tickets for the Mayor's favored? How about the connection to the muslim school where $4 million is unaccounted for and probably being used by the Arab terrorists? Street has his hand into so much stuff that he deserves to get whacked. So, why don't I get you losers a box of tissues so you can cry some more? I am so happy to see the democrat liberals take a beating in everything. HEck, you guys even had to get a republican military man to "turn" democratic just so you think you can retake the White House. How much did you have to pay Clark to do that? How can you support someone who has praised former Republican presidents who believed in conserviatism? You would do anything to try to win an election. Well, too bad because you liberals are all losers.

4. Aw, hell, I guess I'll have to answer you...
First of all, the Street stuff is irrelevant. If he's guilty of something he'll be charged and have a trial, as the Constitution mandates. You won't get to lynch him.

I didn't give Clark one red cent to be a Democrat. Or Kerry. Or Gore. Or Sanford Bishop. Or any of these people who actually went to Vietnam. Where were your "Republican military men" then?

Bush- AWOL
Cheney- had "other priorities"
Limbaugh- Bad Knee
O'Reilly- Bad Knee
Pat Buchanan- bad knee, now an avid jogger
and so on...

Who won the great wars of the 20th century? Democrats
Who lost Vietnam? Nixon.

Democrats are a broad coalition. If Clark is a moderate, so what? So are 50% of other Democrats. So shut your hole.
