“The truth is coming out.''
Davis said "North is a loose
cannon."
l iie truth has also come out
that Robert Gates, who has
been nominated to head the
(!IA, was also "in the know
"If Gates is confirmed, 1 think
it will bo a clear admission that
covert operatives control our
future much more than Con
gress does," he said
Davis likened congressional
hearings, like those of Gates
and Clarence Thomas, to pro
fessional wrestling matches,
where the outcomes tire always
predetermined and always
close. “The problem Is a lot of
people think it's real
However, Davis said lie is
hopeful that (tie American peo
ple will realize the truth and
lake direct action through grass
roots organization to correct
tins state of affairs
"We (have to) stop listening
to the polls that tell us what to
think and tell each other what
we think." Davis said
Davis described an upcoming
national teleconference that
seeks to do just that. "Causes
and Cures" will link citizens
from more than lf>0 IJ.S. cities

between U S. foreign policy
and the flow of drugs, und

a symptom of a larger, perva

"We as a nation are like a
family with an addiction prob
lem," Davis said. "The problem
is that we are in denial
The teleconference is seeking
an alternative to the so called
"War on Drugs.” which Davis
said has boon waged by hyp
ocrites.
Before Davis could get
through his introduction, an
audience member interrupted
the speech and asked Davis
aland his association with a
known racist of ultraconserva
tive political convictions
Davis admitted he dealt with
Do Critz for a short time until
he found out that Critz was ac
tive In a populist party that es
pouses a blatantly racist plat
form.
Davis defended tin: relation
ship on the grounds that Critz
had valuable information to of
fer the Christie institute.
"You have to deal with some
pretty seamy characters," Davis
said. "If you want to know
about the drug trade you don't
