THIS IS PUNISHMENT?

It seems that once again Bill Clinton has shown the world he is the champion of freedom and justice, determined to put ``criminals away where they belong.''

Just look at Cedras - his track record as criminal and oppressor of justice and human rights: Clinton can't punish him enough - a chartered jet to leave Haiti, unfreezing his assets worth an estimated $79 million, the leasing of three of the bad boy's houses by our government.

If this is punishment, please punish me. I promise to do something terrible!
