1. LMAO . . . now THAT would be funny. First though, someone must bring

charges under RICO, otherwise you can't take action under the act.

2. well, as soon as we win back the house and senate in' 06 we can

indict, try, convict, and imprison every single one of these GOP criminals.

it'll make the Reagan and Nixon Admin. indictments look like parking tickets

3. If I'm not mistaken, RICO is for civil actions though, not criminal.

That would mean that anyone who was affected by his criminal activity could file a lawsuit alleging RICO violations.

4. you mean like the residents of the areas he 'redistricted' and they..

.. lost their representation... sounds like that would count as 'affected'.

[goodboy]

7. Didn't he lobby to allow sweatshops and child labor?

[pitohui]

5. you are mistaken

RICO can be applied in criminal cases

[ET Awful]

8. Have any examples? As a paralegal for 8 years or so, I only saw it used

as a cause of action in civil suits. I may be wrong, it wouldn't be the first time, but the only times I've seen it used were civil actions.

edit: Nevermind, I've found what I needed. . . you are correct.

6. many people we affected by his crimes in TX..(nt)

[goodboy]

9. Payback's a bitch ain't it? The fucking pukes hounded Clinton every day

for 8 years.
