...more disturbing--that he acted alone. The real question is, How many other single white supremacists are out there, blessed by the doctrine of Christian Identity and fueled by hatred and the pursuit of the Phineas priesthood? The Rev. Richard Butler of Aryan Nations told the Seattle Post-Intelligencer last week that Furrow had probably been motivated by "the war against the white race." Furrow himself said as much to the authorities. "You can say he was sick, but [the supremacists] gave him a focus for his sickness," says veteran cult watcher Rick Ross. "His involvement with the movement...
...Rove--at Bush's direction--has stayed positive in both of the Governor's Texas races. But Rove still plays hardball behind the scenes. When controversy arose recently over the fact that Bush's finance chairman in Maine was an assault-weapons manufacturer, Rove made sure he resigned his post swiftly, and quietly.

He suggested ? nay, insisted ? that not only was the espionage case against Lee "built on thin air," but that the Taiwan-born scientist also had been scapegoated because of his race. Vrooman won?t get into the nitty-gritty of the case ? top secret, and all that ? but he didn...
...beginning to get stiff. The Connecticut Chamber of Commerce says that everything's fine - you just might want to come by to view the trees a week or two earlier this year - and recently took out ads in 11 magazines to reinforce the message. The state of Maine will post weekly foliage updates beginning September 15. In Vermont, state officials smugly point out that the drought hasn't hit their state as hard, especially in the northern half. Meanwhile, Rhode Island, suffering through its worst summer for rain in recorded history, has given up on promoting leaves and instead would...
