Speaking of Equivocation...

>President Bill Clinton also weighed in Saturday.
>Speaking in the Sequoia National Forest in California,
>the president said, "We have to let the court cases
>be decided, but I think the main thing is I hope
>all the people who came to the United States
>because we have freedom and rule of law
>will observe the rule of law."
Look who's talking about obeying the rule of law....oh, wait, it
says "observe," not "obey."
Notice the implication of the last phrase: observe the rule of
law, but don't seek (more) freedom.
A better President in better times would have said something
like: observe the rule of law, because it protects your freedom.
