[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 2830884, member: 1132"] Yep, and the .gov protected those kids to death, didn't they? As I'm reading this thread, that's where my mind went. Specifically, I believe it was a part of the curriculum vitae for our dearly beloved Attorney General, Eric Holder?

Seriously though, the .gov has a long history of running roughshod over people. Anyone who thinks that is in the past, is an idiot. I don't even know where to start with this post. :disappoin Well there's garden variety hypocrisy, then there's super special and privileged hypocrisy...
