Remembering
Paul Wellstone's 'Poverty Tour'
|
| When
he visited Appalachia in 1997, he impressed people in
the mountains who were generally ignored. Wellstone retraced
the steps Bobby Kennedy once took. . . |
from
'Poverty Tour' Takes Wellstone to Kentucky
by Pat Arnow, In These Times, 10.19.97 |
| It's been 30 years
since a senator from outside of the Appalachians
came to Eastern Kentucky to listen to coal miners.
And what Minnesota Democrat Paul Wellstone heard
on a stop of his national "Poverty Tour"
shocked him. |
| "I'm convinced
that most people in this country--and I'm absolutely
convinced that most people in Congress--think that
what you're describing is something that took place
50 years ago," Wellstone told a group of eight
miners and one young widow he met in Hazard, Ky.

| The visit with the
miners was one stop on Wellstone's cross-country
investigation into the living conditions of poor
people. . . . Read

Our
So-Called Intelligence

Whatever
happened to . . . |
| Eric
Rudolph? |

Picture
from the FBI |

One
of the FBI's
10 Most Wanted, the man suspected of planting a bomb during
the Atlanta Olympics in 1996 and at an Alabama abortion clinic
in 1998, remains at large. National, state and local law enforcement
can’t find this homegrown English-speaking terrorist in an
English-speaking land.
He was probably
hiding within the boundaries of just a couple of counties
in the mountains of Western North Carolina.
Guess who headed
up the hunt for Rudolph for more than two years? The FBI man
who now heads up the Department of Justice's Foreign Terrorist
Tracking Task Force. As if you needed another reason to worry
about the competence of intelligence agencies. |
|
| P.S.
Much later--So they caught him--no thanks to the FBI! |

husband to the movies and hearing an actor on the screen declare,
“I've tasted death. Have you?” Green called out,
“Yes, and it tastes like chicken.” |
