Janet Reno: Are You a Cultist??

Cult

Is the story about how Janet Reno defined a cultist on 60 Minutes true -- or is it an urban legend or hoax?

Janet Reno: Are You a Cultist??

Fwd: ??Are you a cultist, ACCORDING TO JANET RENO??... I Certainly HOPE SO!!!

Attorney General Janet Reno,

"A cultist is one who has a strong belief in the Bible and the Second Coming of Christ; who frequently attends Bible studies; who has a high level of financial giving to a Christian cause; who home schools for their children; who has accumulated survival foods and has a strong belief in the Second Amendment; and who distrusts big government. Any of these may qualify a person as a cultist but certainly more than one of these would cause us to look at this person as a threat and his family as being a risk situation that qualifies for government interference."

-Janet Reno, Attny. General of the United States during an interview on CBS "60 Minutes on June 26, 1999.

Do you qualify? Are you (as defined by the US Attorney General) a threat? If any of these apply to you then you are!! This worries me. Does it worry you? Let's impeach her too!!!

Everyone in this country - "The land of the free" - with computer access should copy this and send to every other man, woman and child who can read.

Editors Note: Janet Reno was never interviewed by 60 Minutes and never said those words.
