You missed the central problem in both cases: No one is above the law in America. Clinton is not permitted to get away with perjury in a court of law and Obama is not permitted to get away with defrauding the Congress.
The afterbirthers think this is a political game to “win” something. The only win is in the sense of the judicial system working by and upholding the promise of equal justice for all - the mighty and powerful and the joe schmoes. Unequal justice is the root of corruption and unhchecked corruption is at the root of the endless poverty and war of third world nations.
Equality under the law is the linch pin of the constitution and America’s exceptionalism. Personally I think it will be horrible if Obama has committed fraud with no gain for anyone politically. The ideal of equal justice before the law is a necessity beyond politics.
We have another problem with corruption that the Congress is ignoring. Timmah from Goldman Sachs is a tax cheat and they put him in charge of the Treasury. Now we are finding he probably made illegal deals with our money for his pals. Corrupt people in power - criminals in power - is another word for the bondage of Africa or South America.
We have a mammoth job to do. Is this where we want to start?
Most of us know what is happening is BAD, WRONG, and because we honor our belief in America and the Constitution, and the people ... we are ham strung ... not knowing how to STOP the travesty of Obama and his cohorts. Czars, progressives, that have a different set of beliefs, and have no compunction about being evil and unconstitutional in their processes. ACORN and fraudulently controlling the voting process. They are operating outside the rules/law and Obama is now going to use executive Order
to accomplish what the legislative bodies did not or could not pass. the end goal is in their sights (MO and nothing is going to stop them. We have seen the tip of the iceberg. WATCH the many inroads that will occur next year and the next. Legislation once passed and offices created it is almost impossible to close them down and fire the people.
UNIONS, CAP AND TRADE, IMMIGRATION, TAXES,NATIONAL DEFENSE, how to pay for the 100 TRILLION debt that America owes, is real, crushing, and IMPOSSIBLE TO PAY IN OUR LIFETIME. AND climbing. out of control spending can and will bring America down, if we do not stop the billions given in Foreign Aid, that we do not have, and the latest is Haiti, which needs help, how are we gong to curtail entitlement programs. Our population is growing and the jobs are leaving.
It is a very complex situation. First things first. Stop or freeze spending on all but the most basic programs. We keep acting and Free Wheeling like drunken sailors in port or LasVegas big winners..
God help us, in Jesus name, amen.
