PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) In the war against terrorism, the Bush administration has failed to balance the scales of liberty and security, former U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno told a packed audience Monday night at Brown University.
After watching President Bush's address, Reno said, ''We will not solve the world's problems by might.''

"We will not solve the world's problems by might."
"Unless it involves people I don't like. Especially if they live in Waco and I'm in a bad mood."
Here's what Janet Reno said after feeling a wave of guilt for her eight years in office:
"What has happened to the Bill of Rights? What has happened to due process?"
No, wait, that's what she said about Bush.

Janet preferred to use "might" on Americans in Waco and in Florida.

What lies the AP spins! (surprise, surprise -- NOT!)
Janet el Reno didn't lose to "the President's brother," she lost to McBride. Janet didn't even make it through her own party's primary.
Such (*&#$%(&s the AP writers are, to think they can rewrite history under our noses!

"Might"...What the hell was it when she used tanks and fire on little kids in Waco. The people that listened to her drivel should be ashamed.

I can't decide who is the more disgraceful ex-Attorney General, Janet Reno or Ramsey Clark. This nation must certainly be resilient to have survived the likes of them. I get sick every time I think of them at the head of our Dept. of Justice. What damage they must have inflicted on our country...

Ok, Janet. Why did you:
1. Order federal agents to take Waco by "force"?
2. Order federal agents to "forcefully" take Elian Gonzalez from his uncle and return him to a communist dictator?
OH. My bad. You only solve DOMESTIC problems by might. Gotcha.
To: syriacus
Janet preferred to use "might" on Americans in Waco and in Florida. It's ok to use the force of the U.S. against women and children but not against dicatorial butchers.

While I agree with you in concept, I still believe it was the Clintons who gave the order in Waco, and Reno was the "patsy".

I can still remember Janet saying "I take full responsibility for Waco." I can also remember her saying that she talked to the President and he said "Do it".

Janet Reno is a stupid, stupid, ignorant spokes(man)? to be spewing her ugly American remarks about the use of "might." Go away, Janet, your 15 minutes of fame were up a long time ago!

After watching President Bush's address, Reno said, ''We will not solve the world's problems by might.'' With the exception of solving the world's problems of facism, totalitarianism, communism, despotism, genocide, dicatorships, evil, and a few others, she's absolutely right. (/sarcasm)

Meanwhile, Bigfoot sightings here in the Providence, RI area have tripled.
Officials are baffled.
When asked about this recent rash of sightings, Ms. Reno was quoted as saying, "RRROOOOAAARRRGGGHH!!"

Reno also criticized the White House's policy toward enemy combatants.
So...that's akin to saying Reno also criticized the White House's policy because Bush is Republican...

Correction: "Lesbo, child molester"
There has been a short film of MS Reno in bed with a 15 year old female, made by the local criminal crowd, which has been well known to the Florida legal crowd for decades.
Evidently, they used it to control her. Ironic, isn't it - 'specially since the Wicked Witch of Waco came to national awareness over a massive series of child molestation charges filed by her against a chap associated with one of the oldest churches in Miami.
Look up the Furster case. Readers Digest even published reprints of the sordid case. When the jury returned "Not Gulity" verdicts on all of the cases (more than twenty counts), and Reno threatened to file another count in a new case, her staff threatened to resign in protest.
That unspeakable wench is the walking, talking, example of the Persecutor's (and I can spell Prosecutor) motto "The guilty we convict at once. The innocent take a little longer."
Reno brought to life the attitude of the Queen in Alice In WonderLand "Sentence first, trial later".
Not to fear, we'll bury her twelve feet deep, 'cause down deep she's a good attorney.

That's a scene, with all those tanks, that Bill Clinton could never bring himself to do with Saddam.
It would look so icky!!!
He dropped just enough bombs on Iraq to make everyone forget about the fat honey, but then stopped. He probably told all the pilots during Desert Fox to aim for the sand.

''What has happened to the Bill of Rights? What has happened to due process? What has happened to the Geneva Convention? If they're not prisoners of war, what are they? And what rights do they have?'' she asked. This is stomach-turning.
What were you asking about the Bill of Rights, Janet?

Her opinion on anything,after being #42's scurrilous pawn for 7-8 years, is irrelevant. She couldn't even win the Florida Governership. Why the Associated Press would voluntarily seek her out and ask her to comment on the actions of this Presidency is another fine example of their Bias.She is a tried and true has been.Still crying over your Elian decision Janet? Go live with that decision each night for the rest of your life.

Why are we STILL giving Ms. Reno the time of day?!
If Reno and the Department of Justice had been on the ball the entire al-Qaeda organization would have been put out of business by 1998! And the World Trade Center towers will still be standing as I type this.
Sheesh.

One person bears testimony to Reno Bozo believing her own words. His initials are "Elian Gonzales".
Anyone have the pic of the officer taking Elian at gunpoint?

"Johnny" Reno is an absolute disgrace. I wish we could just exile her to Cuba.

Endorsing tactics as were used under her regime, Reno sure can't stake any claim on peaceful resolutions to issues, can she? Can't send her to Cuba - there are laws.

I'm wondering why they do this. Are they testing the liberals for brain activity? Are they just poking around with a sharp stick, checking for any response to stimuli?
Whether these people are just plain stupid or genuinely evil should matter zilch. They need to be defeated in every election, and refuted at every statement.
I would really like to stop hating these people but they just won't go away.
