Reno Reign Of Terror Is Over
By: Gene Labarge
Bill McBride has defeated former U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno in the Florida Primary election. Reno, hated by many tried to repeat the Florida presidential vote controversies. Botched vote handling in the liberal counties of Broward and Miami-Dade were once again at the heart of the matter. Unfortunately for Reno the vote was not close enough for a recount. Of course, Reno tried to pin the blame on Governor Bush even though the election officials in both counties were democrats.
The list of the objectionable action and inaction of Janet Reno is well documented. Most recently, a court ruling revealed the FBI botched more than 75 cases seeking espionage and terrorism warrants during Janet Reno’s wrath.
Reno ordered the seizure of Elian Gonzalez at gunpoint and shipped him back to Fidel Castro and his “daddy”. The only time I am aware of Reno speaking up for fathers, it was for a Cuban citizen.
Reno was accused of treason by Rep. James Trafficant. Trafficant has openly blamed Reno and the Clinton Justice Dept. for his prosecution on corruption charges. He is the only high ranking democrat to speak out against his party on a regular basis. He raised issues about the Clinton Administration’s handling of Waco, bribes involving the Chinese government and the death of Vince Foster. Predictably he was left out to dry by his fellow democrats.
Then there was the attack on the Branch Davidians at Waco that ended in horrifying tragedy. There were 74 who died in the inferno including children. Killed by agents acting under the authority of Janet Reno.
There were the repeated shielding of the Clintons from Independent investigators and Al Gore involving his fundraising activities. The list goes on and on. A heavy hand where a light touch was needed and a turn of the head when there were serious matters, some which involved national security.
It is scary to think of what kind of Governor Reno would have been. Thank God we won’t have to find out.
