Let's see... PARTIAL TRANSCRIPT OF INTERVIEW WITH REP. FARNSWORTH MARCH 30, 1999 INTERVIEWER: TERRY GROSS (FRESH AIR/NPR) [...] Rep. F.: Why, yes, Terry. Since you mention it, yes, I did travel to Cuba three months ago and meet with President Castro. During our meeting he agreed that his government would join with my staff in funneling leftover funds from my '96 campaign into abortion clinics here in the U.S. In exchange I provided President Castro - or 'El Jefe' as I like to call him - and his senior military staff with detailed information regarding the vulnerabilities of our cruise missiles and stealth aircraft technology. And since you asked, yes, while I was in Havana I employed the services of several teenaged prostitutes of both sexes. Thank you for giving me an opportunity to come clean. Let me add, though, that I fully support our troops in Yugoslavia, and if I wasn't a card-carrying atheist, I'd be praying for their safe return. --Jon Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wollaston, Massachusetts

The local paper yesterday noted that pot busts have been more numerous
under the Clinton administration than under the Nixon administration.

Could this possibly be partly due to the budgetary incentives the
prosecutorial machine now has in drug arrests.

I know you're joking by taking this to its extreme, Jon, but as an atheist, I wouldn't pray for their safe return either. I'd just want them to return safely. (And I'm not a Commie or a pimp.) Bob

No question. Also, the prison industry has become big business. I don't
have stats handy, there's a lot of big money behind all this prison
construction; the article I read yesterday focused on the phone
companies. It does put a nice spotlight on the answer to the question
"Does America have political prisoners?"

The "If you don't vote you can't complain" folks have themselves to blame. Bob Oh, I get it, you accidentally hit the send button. It happens to all of us at one time or another. Because heaven forfend we blame Clinton for his own policies, and surely we can't blame the people who voted him into office (and indirectly contributed to the application of those policies). It has to be the people who didn't even vote for him. Those sonsabitches ruin everything. Well now, that makes perfect sense. Lance, who would like to believe that if voting actually changed anything, it'd be illegal . . .

I swear when I saw him at ACL taping I thought he was stoned. His eyes
were very red and very glassy.
