Dana 661 Mix Ave.; #11 Hamden, CT 06514 To: Senator Danforth President Bush Re: Proposal for changes in the NOMINATING PROCESS (especially Supreme Court) 1. The President will publicly announce a SHORT LIST of candidates (5 or more). (not just one candidate) As with the Academy Awards, being nominated is an honor even if not chosen, and the actual reasons for not being chosen are hidden. 2. The public (including special interest groups, Senate staff, or anyone) will then be invited to send in any "dirt" on any of the candidates for a SPECIFIED PERIOD OF TIME (several months), to: 3. A SPECIAL POST OFFICE BOX, (publicly announced), which can only be opened by two specified staff members, one on the White House Staff, and one on the Chairman of the Judiciary Committee Staff, and both must be present at the same time when it is opened, and both must examine and compile the information at the same time. Only four people will know the contents of the post office box, the President and one staff member, and the Chairman of the Judiciary Committee and one staff member. 4. The information accepted can only be previously published or publicly announced "dirt", or new "dirt" in confidence, with name and address. Any new "dirt" which is publicly announced during the Specified Period (above) will NOT be accepted, eccept for obvious events such as arrests, etc. 5. At the end of the Specified Period, no new charges will be accepted for consideration, no matter what they are (other than obvious things such as arrest, etc.), and cannot be used by the Senate Judiciary Committee or the full Senate. 6. During the Specified Period, and/or shortly after, the collected raw dirt will be shared with the nominees before FBI investigation. If a nominee wishes to withdraw at that point, then the fact that he or she has withdrawn will not be made public. He or she will simply not be the chosen candidate. 7. FBI investigations of the remaining candidates (or some of them) will then take place (so that the prime candidate will only be known by one man - the President - investigation of just one would perhaps let the "cat out of the bag") 8. The results of the FBI investigations will then be shared with the candidates and the President ONLY. This will allow further withdrawals- from nomination, if necessary, but keep the reason for withdrawal confidential. 9. The President will then make his prime choice known only to the candidate and to the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, who will be given the FBI report at that time This will allow the Chairman to register objections based only on the FBI report, not on politics. If there are no objections, then the President would publicly announce the candidate of choice. If there are confidential objections from the Chairman, then the President will decide whether to nominate his prime candidate regardless of possible problems, or whether to name another candidate who may have no non-political objections from the Chairman, based on the FBI reports. I submit that these suggestions might overcome some of the current problems. (To end on a note of levity, the joke that is going around here is that in the future, the only male candidate that the President could SAFELY nominate to the Supreme Court will be someone who is gay!!)

The regulations will wreak havoc on State Medicaid budgets and place further strain on the national safety net hospitals. The rule, which is hopelessly ambiguous, calls into question states' use of provider-specific taxes which represent a vital source of Medicaid funds in Texas. In the 1990 OBRA legislation, Congress made its position clear: HCFA was to continue matching provider-based taxes. Now HCFA is seeking to unilaterally change the rules of the game. I urge you to speak out against the regulations and work legislatively to prevent their implementation. In 1990 the average Texas hospital received almost $900 less per Medicaid patient than the cost of providing their health care. Additionally, the recession and federally mandated eligibility expansions have contributed to the Medicaid population explosion of almost 25% in Texas. In El Paso, there are many residents who have no health insurance at all but for whom we continue to provide care. The need for services will not end if the regulations stand.

C. 20500 Dear Mr. President: It was you who lost credibility when you authorized your staff to organize a last minute attempt to undermine Miss Hill's credibility and character. Your instigation of these attacks was reprehensible and a disservice to the American people. Senator Dole on TV Tuesday evening cavalierly referred to such tactics as "hardball politics." You nominated Judge Thomas, a man with limited experience as a judge, for political reasons well understood by everyone. Then you proceeded to tell the American people that he was the best qualified person that you could find. The American Bar Association found him to be only marginally qualified. A Supreme Court justice should have the h ighest intellect, a distinguished record assa judge, and be known as a person of great distinction. You have totally politicized the process and again shown the American people that you will resort to any tactics to gain your political goals. Your efforts to destroy Miss Hill remind us of your election campaign with Willie Horton, The Pledge of Allegiance, and Boston Harbor. Surely the American people deserve something better from the White House. Very truly yours, Helen m. Pitts Helen M. Pitts P.S. Isn't it remarkable that the President could find a man who had no recollection of any of the statements he had made in the post concerning issues, and who had W ade? or thought about Roe- I'm sure that President Bush was very specter proud of in Senators their scurrilous Hatch, Simpson, and dishorest attacks on miss Hills credibility and character.

I support true wet lands preservation (Swamps maishes, and bogs, However I feel the 1989 & 1989 Revised Wet lands manuals go too far and control the use of lano that is not wet. By making this change it will do much more harm than good to many local Economy structures that are already in bad shape. The government Should 90 Back to what it was before 1989. more than Girds are at stack here Thank you for your time Sincerely, Janice E Milles COMMENTS ON "1989 FEDERAL MANUAL FOR IDENTIFYING AND DELINEATING JURISDICTIONAL WETLANDS", Proposed Revision General Comments: 1. The revised manual is an improvement over the 1989 manual. Addi- tional improvements are needed. 2. Private property rights must be addressed and made part of this process. 3. The revised manual continues to be extremely complicated and almost impossible to understand-even the regulatory employees have trouble with it. This issue is not that complex and it appears that it is being made complex to confuse property owners and the general public. 4. The permitting process should have time limits established. Delays and indecision are very costly to the property owner. Suggest a 90-day permit period from receipt of application to a yes or no decision by the Corps of Engineers. Good business management is needed in the permitting and review process. 5. Highly recommend that the 1989 manual and all revisions be voided. That the 1987 manual, with soils and plant list available at that time, be used for the permitting process. And immediately set up a Blue Ribbon committee of scientist, land owners, foresters and land developers to formulate a Wetlands Manual for identifying and delin- eating jurisdictional wetlands. 6. Regional and even state wetlands plant and soils list should be developed by this same Blue Ribbon committee. Specific Recommendations: 1. The requirement that all 3 wetlands criteria must be satisfied, each independent of the other two, must be clearly and precisely spelled out in the manual. e.g. field inspectors should not be allowed to assume that since the soil is hydric-that-hydrology and-plant-re- quirements are also met. 2. "Disturbed Wetland Areas" should be eliminated from this manual. Almost all the land east of the Mississippi River has been disturbed at one time or another and much of that west of the river. Wetland classification must be made on the present condition and function of the land. If left in the manual, this will undo the intention of President Bush, his council on Competitiveness and the improvements that have been made with this revised manual. 3. Change the "growing season" definition to agree with what is univer- sally accepted: "from the average date of the last killing frost in the spring to the average date of the first killing frost in the fall." 4. Facultative vegetation is neutral, therefore, it should not be counted or even used to determine if the hydrophytic vegetation criteria is met. 5. Even though 3 years of water table data and 5 years of aerial photog- raphy is not a requirement, their inclusion in this manual could be interpreted as requiring this length of time before a delineation could be made. This optional data requirement should be eliminated from this manual. The use of these data should be optional and used when they are available and reliable. 6. The manual should state emphatically that a single secondary indica- tor does not determine whether a criterion has been met. 7. Change the hydric soils criterion so it is consistent with the requirement that soils must be saturated to the surface for a minimum of 21 days. The revised manual section on hydric soils still indi- cates that a water table of 6 to 18 inches below the surface deter- mines hydrology. This inconsistency must be changed. Petition to President George Bush WHEREAS, the Soviet Union is undergoing dramatic change, and WHEREAS, the Soviet's are requesting economic aid as a difficult winter approaches, and WHEREAS, for years the Soviet Union has been an active enemy of the United States with extensive operations design- ed not only to gather intelligence in the United States but also to engage in active measures against our country, and WHEREAS, much of that activity has been undertaken in the United States, and with the aid of citizens of the United States, and WHEREAS, many of those taking part in these activities received the encouragement of, funding from, and direction from the Soviet KGB, and WHEREAS, there is reason to believe that many such peo- ple and organizations continue to operate in the U.S. and main- tain control and power in key areas of our society, and WHEREAS, the best way to expose these groups and in- dividuals is with the aid of the Soviet Union. NOW THEREFORE, I the undersigned do hereby petition you to demand that the Soviet Union release the names of all such groups and individuals still alive in the United States. I FURTHER PETITION, you to demand that all KGB files relating to the activities of said individuals be turned over to our Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) for investigation and prosecution. FINALLY, I URGE you to add this demand to your list of demands which the Soviet's fulfil prior to getting any aid, and I ask that you communicate this to Soviet President Gorbachev at once. sfc Ernest a.

C. 20515 Dear Hank: I am writing to urge you to sustain the veto of the 20 week extension of unemployment benefits. The cost of this will of course come, one way or another, from unemployment taxes paid by the employer. You people are killing the golden goose. For years I have been writing congressmen and senators about difficulties many small businesspeople are facing, but nothing seems to change. Normally, I just receive a computer letter two or three months later and not always even on the area of my concern. I will have to close my business shortly and after all the years of paying employee's social security, unemployment taxes and other benefits, I am faced with nothing for my family. I will have 0 weeks of unemployment help and no one will even notice I'm gone, except the tax collector who will want to make sure I pay my last quarter of employment taxes. I started my business 20 years ago and at its peak and for several years, I had 11 people employed. But costs of running the business increased faster than profits. In addition, the bank I have delt with for 15 years, has simply stopped working with me because of fear of the regulators. The bank has never lost a dime on me and I am less risk now than I was several years ago. But because they have turned so timid, I have had to try to run my business out-of-pocket. I am certain my business will simply end up a statistic and someone, somewhere sill simply say I failed because I couldn't compete and that's the American way. In recent months I have had two friends go out of business for similar reasons. One ended up a suicide, which because I knew him so well, am certain was to provide his life insurance proceeds for his family. We have all been very active in our community and time and time again have given to appeals from community organizations. I have even been a stand-in spokesman for you during past congressional campaigns where you were unable to attend. But now, at the end, there is no one and there is nothing available to help us. I hope this at least gets to you. I'd hate to think that my last appeal as a small businessman would sit unnoticed on some staff persons desk until they could find some computer letter that will muffle my concerns.

WILLIAM WEBSTER PROF. ANITA HILL'S ALLEGATIONS AGAINST JUDGE CLARENCE THOMAS WERE INSTIGATED BY, AND FABRICATED WITH THE HELP OF, LEGAL SCHOLAR CATHARINE A. MACKINNON, A KEY FIGURE IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF SEXUAL HARASSMENT LAW AND PROPONENT OF ANTI-PORNOGRAPHY LEGISLATION. IT WAS MACKINNON, NOW A UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN LAW PROFESSOR ON SABBATICAL, WHO, IN A BRIEF SUBMITTED TO THE SUPREME COURT WHEN IN 1986 IT FIRST REVIEWED A CASE INVOLVING SEXUAL HARASSMENT, FIRST PROPOSED THE "HOSTILE ENVIRONMENT" DOCTRINE, WHICH THE COURT EMBRACED, RENDERING CONDUCT SUCH AS THAT ATTRIBUTED TO THOMAS ILLEGAL. MACKINNON BOASTED TO FRIENDS IN AUGUST OF THIS YEAR THAT SHE HAD DEVISED A PLAN TO "DEGRADE AND HUMILIATE UNCLE THOMAS THE WAY HE WOULD DEGRADE AND HUMILIATE WOMEN" WERE HIS NOMINATION TO THE SUPREME COURT CONFIRMED. SHE PREDICTED THAT SHE WAS GOING TO "MAKE SEXUAL HARASSMENT THE TOP STORY ON CNN." MACKINNON PROVIDED HILL WITH COPIES OF CASE REPORTS AND TRANSCRIPTS OF TESTIMONY IN CASES WHERE SEXUAL HARASSMENT HAS BEEN SUCCESSFULY ALLEGED. MACKINNON ALSO SUPPLIED REPORTS AND TRANSCRIPTS OF ANTI- PORNOGRAPHY LITIGATION, EMPHASIZING TO HILL THAT FELLOW YALE LAW SCHOOL GRADUATE WAS BEING PRESENTED WITH AN HISTORIC OPPORTUNITY TO LINK PORNOGRAPHY WITH SEXUAL HARASSMENT IN THE PUBLIC MIND. IT WAS FROM THESE DOCUMENTS THAT DETAILS OF HILL'S ALLEGATIONS WERE DRAWN. SINCE HILL'S STORY SURFACED, MACKINNON HAS BOASTED PRIVATELY THAT IT WAS SHE WHO PERSUADED THE OKLAHOMA LAW PROFESSOR TO CHARGE THOMAS WITH SEXUAL HARASSMENT. SHE JUSTIFIED HER ACTION ON THE GROUNDS THAT HIS CONFIRMATION "WOULD TILT THE COURT AGAINST WOMEN FOR A GENERATION. MACKINNON TOLD FRIENDS THAT "THIS IS AN UNPRECEDENTED CHANCE FOR A WOMAN TO CHANGE THE COURSE OF AMERICAN HISTORY, BECAUSE ONLY A WOMAN CAN KEEP UNCLE THOMAS OFF THE COURT." SHE SAID THAT DURING THE SEARCH FOR A WOMAN WHO COULD PLAUSIBLY DENOUNCE HILL, SHE STRESSED THAT THE ACCUSER HAD TO BE BLACK, BECAUSE "THAT'S THE WAY TO KILL THIS MOCKINGBIRD." "AN ATTACK ON A BLACK MAN BECAUSE HE'S BLACK WILL RESULT IN BLACK WOMEN LOSING POWER BECAUSE THEY'RE BLACK," MACKINNON SAID. "THOMAS MUST BE ATTACKED NOT AS A BLACK, BUT AS A MALE." ONE OF THOSE CONTACTED BY MACKINNON FOR ASSISTANCE IN LOCATING A WOMAN WILLING TO COME FORWARD AGAINST THOMAS, AN AFRICAN-AMERICAN FEMINIST ATTORNEY PRACTICING IN NEW YORK, DECLINED TO HELP AFTER MACKINNON REPLIED TO HER QUESTION AS TO WHETHER THERE WAS ACTUALLY ANY EVIDENCE THAT THOMAS HAD HARASSED ANYONE AS FOLLOWS: "NO, BUT FROM A MORAL STANDPOINT, WE DON'T NEED ANY. HE MUST HAVE DONE IT, BECAUSE ALL MEN ARE GUILTY OF SEXUAL HARASSMENT AT ONE TIME OR ANOTHER. SO HE'LL JUST BE GETTING WHAT'S COMING TO HIM. BESIDES, WE HAVE PLENTY OF EVIDENCE THAT HE'D UPHOLD THE INSTITUTIONALIZATION OF MALE DOMINATION OF WOMEN THROUGHOUT THE LEGAL SYSTEM. SO HE HAS TO BE STOPPED, AND WE CAN'T BE SQUEAMISH ABOUT HOW WE DO IT." THE NEW YORK ATTORNEY THEN EXPRESSED CONCERN THAT WHOEVER BROUGHT CHARGES AGAINST THOMAS WOULD BE REQUIRED TO PERJURE HERSELF BEFORE A COMMITTEE OF THE U.S. SENATE. "DON'T WORRY," MACKINNON ASSURED HER. "IT WON'T HAVE TO GO THAT FAR." ISLAND NY NY 17 LONG PM 117 Journey to a New Frontier ©PP 15 OCT 1991 Collect Shamps URGENT - CONFIDENTIAL Gov.

In El Paso, there are many residents who have no health insurance at all but for whom we continue to provide care. The need for services will not end if the regulations stand. Until a fiscally viable national health policy of caring for America's indigent is designed, these programs are vital to prevent the collapse of the health care industry's ability to care for our country's poorest and neediest.

Sununu Governor Chief of Staff 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue Washington, DC 20500 October 10, 1991 President George Bush The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue Washington, DC 20500 Dear Mr. President, RE: FAIR HOUSING We are writing to express our sincere appreciation, and to praise the White House for its efforts and its support of the National Campaign for Fair Housing. It is a pleasure to see this administration be so responsive to the needs of the people who have been discriminated against in their pursuit of attaining a place to live. The results of the campaign are impressive. More people are filing complaints and we feel it's the support of the federal government that is empowering these victims to come forward and report the injustices they have suffered for so long. We also believe this education is instrumental to informing landlords, real estate and financial professionals that to practice discrimination is illegal and will not be tolerated under your leadership. We commend the White House for its support of the Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988 that mandated fair housing enforcement and education. Sincerely, THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE CC: Jack Kemp, Secretary for Housing and Urban Development John Sununu, Chief of Staff Dorrince Smith, Director of Public Affairs, The White House Senator Robert Dole Jan E.

BOX 420815 KISSIMMEE, FL 34742-0815 President George Bush October 17, : 1991 c/o Gov. John Sununu Chief of Staff The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. Washington, D.C. 20500 Re: Impeachment of Judge Clarence Thomas Dear President Bush: I am on record with the Senate Judiciary Committee as a supporter of the nomination of Judge Clarence Thomas as an Associate Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. Like many citizens, I watched and video-taped most of the committee hearings. Last night I watched a "post mortem" Town Meeting on ABC hosted by Ted Koppell. A distinguished panel of senators and some very distinguished citizens discussed how future hearings might be better conducted. Of particular interest to me was the comment made by Timothy Phelps, Newsday Supreme Court reporter, during the Town Meeting regarding possible future corroboration of Anita Hill's allegations, and what would Congress do if Anita Hill ever produced proof? I recall Judge Thomas commenting during the hearing that if Ms. Hill's charges were accurate, that there was sexual harrassment and criminal charges should be filed, or words to that effect. Mr. Phelps and Ms. Totenberg also stated that they had heard of the sexual harrassment rumors back in July, and it was obvious to me that they both felt that the Senate Judiciary Committee and the FBI had not properly investigated those rumors. Senator Specter replied to Mr. Phelps' question by saying that if Ms. Hill's allegations could be proven, then Judge Thomas would be guilty of perjury and would be impeached. What worries me is that Mr. Phelps and Ms. Totenberg gave me the impression that there is evidence available to support Ms. Hill's allegations and that those two reporters, their organizations, and others were going to follow up and produce such evidence. If you allow Judge Thomas to be sworn-in and then evidence is produced as suggested, then impeachement is in order and our nation will continue to suffer under this mess. I believe that a grand jury should be convened to determine if such evidence is truly available. Such a grand jury was mentioned at last night's Town Meeting. It is also obvious from Ron Brown's comments last night that the Democrats will use sexual harrassment, unemployment, and homeless, in their campaign. against your re-election. That won't work because the Democrats don't have a. strong candidate to run against you. But I think that you should lay the allegations against Judge Thomas to rest by supporting the idea of a grand jury to hear pertinent statements from both sides. This should have been done prior to Ms. Hill's public testimony. MRN/s Respectfully, Copies c/o U.S. Supreme Court, certain members of Congress Martin R. Northrup MARTIN R. NORTHRUP 29 Wood Duck P.O. BOX 420815 USA KISSIMMEE, FL 34742-0815 PM FL 328 18 OCT 1991 President George Bush cyo Gov. John Sununu Chief of Staff The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. Washington, D.C. 20500 Impeach Thomas N, AD + ALTARIE + DEI I have written things to come great and small You have read the words and seen the actions Soon you shall understand the meaning of God Once Cronus AnatoliA 11 October 6704 Julian Friday Sununu From California to Maine the influence grows. This is the first half of a letter that will identify the One who has been changing the world's social order by the Spiritual presence In the meanwhile the "games" continue ang 18 October 6704 - Friday 1555zulu "So it is written SO it shall be." These are powerful words; such words written in conjunction with a Spiritual Directive by God can cause nations to fall. On the 17 of September in the current Julian year of 6704 I composed and prepared just such a Spiritual Directive; and a separate letter to the White House Chief of Staff. On that day "unexplained" human chain of events caused the communication system of AT&T at New York to go down resulting in a massive failure of the air traffic system. The letter to Sununu outlined that an exposure of crimes and scandals would soon ensue the following Sunday (9/22/91 C.E.) the Washington Post Magazine ran a cover story (with Mr. Sununu on the cover) about such scandals coincidence? Think not This is a very carefully planned and executed program. A plan conceived in September 6703 during the Colorado gathering; expanded during the Conference of Twelve at Kansas City in November; and given the final preparations and execution orders during my New York and Washington sojourns in December all while the right-wing military and social criminals were headed for a dangerous confrontation in the Middle-East. We had Our response prepared. The issue can no longer be debated as to whether there is a higher power. This aspect of nature can manifest and subsequent to the creation of nuclear destruction in 6658 a coming was again necessary. I came in the face of such danger of once again being rejected and murdered by fanatical religions and power blinded hierarchical government. But the fate of this planet hangs in the balance. The leaders of the human race had reached a critical and dangerous state of development the destructive stage, and SO God came: "Build it and he will come " and SO I came to living and breathing life when the bombs were built. I have remained in the shadow of obscurity since my birth in 6660 - working quietly and with diligence to bring about structural social change to the existing world order. Progress was being made concerning improvement in the environment, social consciousness, and world peace until the ascent of the presidential puppet Reagan; a facade for those powerful and corrupt forces behind this idle mind. In 6693 I became more active in the affairs of humankind in response to this folly, and the opposition to Our program increased. In 6699 Julian (1986 C.E.) the world reached a critical point. With the destruction of the Challenger astronauts under the White House pressure to launch in temperatures too cold for the rocket (so Reagan could have his "State of the Union" event to launch the capture of Congress that, fall); the disaster of the Chernobyl Nuclear Plant; the continued advancé of social genocide and destruction of whole classes of people by drugs and crime in the cities of America; to the usurping of power by brokers of Organized Crime in the inner sanctuaries of government that the average American still fantasized as a democracy because of the cumulative of this danger I had to act and become more visible in my Spiritual contact; and SO I traveled to Russia in October 6699.

FORT Collect Stalous 16 OCT Se 3980 EDGEHILL ROAD FORT WORTH, TX 76116 Chief of Staff John Sununu The White House Washington, DC 20500 Dear Mr. Sununu, Reverend Wildmon of the American Family Association suggested I write you. The National Endowment for the Arts is giving my tax dollars to so-called "artists" who produce blatantly anti-Christian, obscene, pornographic and homoerotic "art". I understand Reverend Wildmon is sending you a list describing the kinds of "art" exhibits the NEA has funded. Please do all you can to encourage President Bush to end all funding of the NEA. I work hard for my money. And I don't like the NEA giving it away to people who want to destroy the moral values of our children. Thank you for your help in this matter.

I greatly respected Judge Clarence Thomas and am convinced the certain Senators and their staffers set up Anita Hill to do that terribly lying, causing untold trouble & expense to the country in watch- iong the hearings. I STRONGLY urge you to push for a full investigation, which could put her in jail for perjury, mis- leading Congress, etc., and find source of leaks and push for their firing, even getting the Senator expelled. The LIBs are SO mean (this, Col. North, etc.), SO NAIL them or they 11 do it again. This is only JUSTICE! Resperbul
