There are probably political issues that are operating to prevent the sensible thing from happening, though, which is discouraging.

If you are wondering why there is reluctance on the part of Republicans to press this issue (I am inferring that from your words, and I could be wrong about your meaning) there are 3 main reasons:

1. They are afraid of a race war breaking out.

2. They are afraid to be embarrassed in case the allegations (no BBC) are proven untrue.

3. They are afraid that even if proven true and even if the inner cities remain calm(doubtful) the powers that be and the voters will do nothing about it -- much like they treated the Lewinsky scandal.

JMHO, but that does not mean that it is the right way to treat this allegation. It should be proven right or wrong. Layed on the table and examined. Sent to document experts for vetting. But that's just me. I'm a blck and white sort of person, no pun intended.

afraidfortherepublic,

I agree with you 100% on this. You got my meaning exactly right. It boils down to the same reason they didn’t do anything last summer. I am not so sure that I want to blame them, either. It’s easy for me to say I’d do it myself if I had the power, but my knowledge of what the situation really is so limited as to render me incapable of any meaningful conclusion. We are simply not privy to much of the reality facing our country. I pray to God that the people’s respresentatives are as aware as we are and that they are doing what they CAN to protect us from Obama.
