[edit] Reversion due to political bias

So, due to clear bias of including the OKC bombing information, I reverted the article back to its original state, sans the prejudicial information.

[edit] OKC bombing

this page is ridiculously biased. Good job wikipedians for cleaning up clear political bias. You make "wikipedia" synonymous with "bullshit" Benwetmore 21:13, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Megan's Law

Stockman did not co-author the Megan's Law. Ex-Cong. Dick Zimmer wrote it.

[edit] Runoff

Stockman did not win his first race against Lampson. He lost both the November election and the court ordered December election.

Actually, he did win.

[edit] Bias

This page is ridiculously one-sided and loaded with inflammatory language. The admins should clean it up. 69.143.125.221 04:43, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Restored

I've restored the previous posts. I've deleted the OK Bombing Fax reference because the details that were included were probably erroneous. I'll repost it again when I've researched it properly. All other details restored are accurate.

[edit] Obvious Campaign Edits

This is ridiculous that this page can't be objective about Stockman and keeps adding irrelevant or inane details about him. Whether some random group called him a hero to taxpayers or the best Congressman of the century isn't quite relevant. Whoever keeps posting that Stockman is a Hero to the Taxpayer obviously never paid many taxes since Stockman tried to cut taxes, but kept getting knocked around by his fellow Republicans. He didn't cut taxes though, so how can he be a hero?
