Sandy Berger, Anita Hill
Al Gore (illegal fundraising w/ White House phones)
John Edwards
Was it Harold Ford? Anyway, the Tennessee Ford with the frozen money.
Alcee Hastings
Wasn’t Ron Brown crooked too?
Janet Reno.
Holder.
Yes, Brown was implicated in some scandals but his untimely death put an end to any real investigation IIRC. Let’s include Biden and his clan, they seem as involved in nepotism as the Kennedys, most of the Dems in Chicago, Ray Nagin, the Dems involved with Abrams, the S&L Dems, the former head of Fannie Mae, the entire ACORN organization which will probable entirely escape investigation.
I’d like to put a statue of Nagin out in front of the Hall - and I want it to have tears streaming down his face.
This may be part of the reason there is so little respect for law these days. When leaders can break the law with impunity because of who they are, why should the “little people” respect the rule of law?
I’ve kinda been wondering - myself - why should I pay my mortgage this month?
Or my credit card bill?
Because you are at heart an honest person who doesn’t need man’s laws to tell you what is right or wrong. It is written on your heart and in your conscience and because, in the words of an old poem, you believe “I have to live with myself and so, I want to be fit for myself to know.” “I don’t want to stand at the setting sun and hate myself for the things I’ve done.” “I want to be able as days go by, always to look myself straight in the eye.” (Can’t remember the order of those lines.)
I’m pulling your leg there - but I wonder how many people will go this route.
As long as the government is handing out free money, and talking about changing interest rates and even knocking down principle - at some point the honest folks will say “there is a real payoff to being a deadbeat!”
