The American Spectator

Clue to Mr. Weyrich -- the dead motorcyclist had a name. His name was Randolph Scott, from Hardwick, MN.

By the way, I've forgotten the name of the Tennessee state senator creep who (while DUI) struck and killed one Terry Barnhard of Ohio while he was vacationing (on one of those pesky bikes again) in Tennessee about three or four years ago, but I have not forgotten Terry's name. Those evil swine in Tennessee actually named a road after the State Senator creep after the DUI murder. The AMA (American Motorcyclist Association) bought a billboard on the same road and put the real story up in big letters.

Sorry for the vent, but I just flat blew a gasket -- SSDD for us motorcyclists. Janklow will not get what he deserves. We'll hear lots of full of crap platitudes about his service, blah, blah, blah. We'll never hear about Mr. Scott again. Guess he just does not count.

I'll try to close on a positive note: The American Spectator is a wonderful magazine. You and all the staff do such a fine job. This is the first complaint I've ever had re the magazine or the website.

Regarding Paul Weyrich's article of Aug. 25th. Weyrich speaks at length about congressman Janklow's career, but gives short mention of his prior driving record.

Janklow was well known for multiple traffic violations while he was governor (and other times too) for which you can bet an ordinary citizen would have surely lost his license or worse. Now it appears his speeding and running a stop sign have resulted in the senseless death of motorcyclist Randolph Scott.

At long last, Janklow must be held accountable for his irresponsible actions like any of the rest of us would, notwithstanding his career in government. Anything less would be an outrage.
