MT and the rest of Hillary lovers

[mietla]

Clintons really came to believe that they are above the law. So far they beat it every time, why not once more.

Would it be too much to ask to put enough original thought into your post to come up with a coherent point or two instead of just linking to a 10-minute video?

All charges were dropped against Hillary, case was thrown out then reopened in civil court. Basically the guy is charging Bill with doing a business deal with an investor that the guy wanted to do a business deal with 1st. I hope the Country can survive such carnage.

We've survived crooked politicians for a long time now but they have certainly taken their toll. There must a breaking point somewhere.

There's not. It's just a cycle. We've had crooked politicians for 200 years. All political systems will always have some amount of corruption.

He didn't make any points? Kinda looks like to me he expressed a belief that the Clintons think they are above the law and can do as they please w/o regard for consequences. He also points out that so far, they have always beaten any charges.

Granted, it wasn't a lot, but it was something

Corruption should be rooted out and punished severely lest it become the norm.

And if you can't find corruption in the pols you hate... make up a really good story.

Kinda like Capone never being guilty of anything.

Where's Ken Star when you need 'em?

Corruption has always been the norm.  Since the dawn of the Politician, it has always been the norm.


Though there is one way to tell an honest politician from the rest.

The poor ones are the honest ones. Good luck finding many of those.

I remember Truman as probably being more honest than most, even though he came out of the Pendergast machine.

When President Truman retired from office in 1952, his income was substantially a U.S. Army pension reported to have been $13,507.72 a year. Congress, noting he was paying for stamps and personally licking them, granted him an "allowance" and, later, a retroactive pension of $25,000 per year.

When offered corporate positions at large salaries, he declined, stating, "You don't want me. You want the office of the president, and that doesn't belong to me. It belongs to the American people and it's not for sale." Even later, on May 6, 1971, when Congress was preparing to award him the Medal of Honor on his 87th birthday, he refused to accept it, writing, "I don't consider that I have done anything which should be the reason for any award, Congressional or otherwise."...

...Was good old Harry correct when he made the following observation, "My choice early in life was either to be a piano player in a potatohouse or a politician. And to tell the truth, there's hardly any difference. I, for one, believe the piano player job to be much more honorable than current politicians!"

It is the eternal struggle between these two principles -- right and wrong. They are the two principles that have stood face to face from the beginning of time and will ever continue to struggle. It is the same spirit that says, "You work and toil and earn bread, and I'll eat it." - Abraham Lincoln

The real irony is that you think you are saying something by quoting Lincoln, one of the worst presidents this nation has ever had.
