Same reason they did not go after Clinton. The Republicans are just as dirty as the Democrats. Just maybe not in the same areas.

I don’t know of any republicans refusing to take Osama Ben Laden into custody, or revealing the identity of our top secret military assault unit members.

Granted our side does some bad things too, but they’re on a whole different level.

As far as I am concerned though, it’s time to clean house on both sides. If a Republican is doing something wrong, take the appropriate action. If jail is warranted, so be it.

“The Republicans are just as dirty as the Democrats. Just maybe not in the same areas.”


And we know it. Hence the grassroots surge of what became the Tea Party. From one of my posts way back then:

“The tea party is not another political party. It is a group of like-minded individuals who have similar goals, ideals and objectives. It’s a movement that calls for changes - smaller limited government, drastically reduced gov’t. spending, less taxes, a secure border, state’s rights, strong national defense.

We want our basic freedoms and liberties protected including gun ownership, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and protection of our property rights.

We are comprised of persons from all political venues, from all parts of the country, from all races and genders, all ages with the above issues special to our hearts foremost in our minds as we start the process of cleaning house. Cleaning house the likes of which has never been seen. On both sides of the aisle.

We don’t have the time or the desire to fight amongst ourselves. Our focus should be laser sharp and pointed at any element in any area of government that does not represent the Constitution or the freedom of American people.”

It was a time when we all realized that there was no longer a party that represented Americans and our Constitution. The GOP had gone over the waterfall in their own barrel of misdeads and personal interests.

It wasn’t just the Democrats who feared the movement.
