It still amazes me that people are so easily corrupted.
The guy forever defamed the office, he broke two major laws against perjury and obstruction of justice, he took advantage of not only a subordinate but a woman young enough to be his daughter, he completely betrayed his family and he set the worst possible example as a role model for the youth.
You know, I have no love loss for Hillary, but she didn’t deserve that humiliation. No one does. And he knew, HE KNEW, that he risked not only his own self by doing it but that if it became known that he would put her through one of the worst humilations of all time.
But all of that is not even the worst thing. The worst thing is that somehow, his behavior became glorified. Not even just trivialized (which is deplorable), but actually glorified. By acting like that, he became the “first black president”? Are you kidding me? Evidently adultery, molesting and lying are black qualities? That type of comment is worse than a thousand “N” bombs.
Idiotic, corrupting MTV-braindead degenerate lameness. And that he wasn’t forced out of office for it, let alone prosecuted and imprisoned, is to the country’s collective shame.
That pretty well sums it up.
One point too often overlooked:
Once caught, he felt compelled to lie.
That lie was twisted by the media into a virtue:
"He did it for his family." was the widely accepted excuse.
But if he feared exposure, then he was vulnerable to blackmail.
And his high office was severely and unforgivably compromised.
It would have been better for us if he'd freely admitted his corruption and assumed a 'Goodtime Charlie' persona.
Never forget his betrayals.
Our failure to kick him out is a black mark against all of us.
But him mostly.
