Only I know about?  Talk about MY credability some more... I've only seen about
10 other people post who know about this investigation...

Talk about teflon...  Gee, when it Reagan or Bush they go after, all is
wonderful, but bring up Carter and scandal in the same sentence and YOU go
haywire.

The BCCI investigation continues and is geared towards the TRUTH, witout
regard to administrations.

No, Alex, you are so wrong.  "Desparate" right wingers came to Carter's defense
when FALSE claims about Carter's term are brought up.

Carter is a wonderful man, so is Reagan, so is Bush, so is Quayle.  Carter
was a lousy president with few good policies, and was much better suited to
be an ambassador to Egypt than anything else.  Reagan kicked butt and really
shook things up as president and did more good things in 4 months than Carter
did in 4 years.  The best defense for Bush is his foreign policy which dwarfs
what Carter's was.
