Antonio;

You are really clueless if you think that his office will have the power 
to remove postings from usenet that have already been posted. Sure, they 
could remove them from the Whitehouse's news server but if you understood 
the slighest bit about news then you would know it is impossibe to erase 
a post from ever news server is the world.

God some people are so naive. 

Antonio, I dunno who told you this or if you are making this up for 
humor, but if you do believe it I have some real cool get rich fast 
techniques I would LOVE to sell you.
