The idea that Pelosi can even whine about a "climate of Republican corruption" when the Dems are routinely being indicted and convicted, is a joke. And the ONLY reason they have the gall to even engage in this rhetoric is because they know the media buries most of the Democrats malfeseance.
Just coming off the 2004 election indicates the amount of fraud and crime that the Democrats engage in. I'm actually kind of stunned that the Democrats would go after Delay for campaign violations when they know damn well the very financial success they've enjoyed in the last decade is a result of their blatant campaign violations.
Even the so-called Rove/Libby "slash-and-burn" tactics are a dangerous road for democrats to tread since they are bordering on criminalizing whistleblowing. Putting aside the status/legalities of Plame's position, how can anyone think that correcting a lie is somehow a criminal act. If so, how can the mediacrats celebrate Mark Felt (Deepthroat) as a hero, when some of the very activities he engaged in were prohibited by Federal law...laws that he was very familiar with because of his position. What's even more sad is that as Democrats are going after Republicans for everything under the Sun, we have a Bush-led DOJ that argued for leniency for a convicted Sandy Bergler.
Linda Tripp gets threatened with jail for daring to record a conversation in order to protect herself; at the same time, a Florida couple illegaly records a cell-phone conversation between Newt and another GOPer, that not only gets passed to Jim McDermott, it also gets disclosure by the NY Times.
Chuck Colson goes to jail for possessing and disseminating one FBI file..yet the Clinton's and Craig Livingstone get a free pass for possessing over 900 FBI files. Heck, Ken Bacon did the same thing that Colson did when he publicly released Tripp's private employment records to the press...yet, not only doesn't he see a day of jail, he isn't even charged with a crime.
The level of corruption in the Democrat party isn't just limited to their own criminal activities; it encompasses an out-of-control double standard that is literally criminalizing conservatism as they use the courts to defeat the opponents they can't defeat at the ballot-box. With a complicit media, Republicans had better wake up to this fact; this is no longer just their political futures that are at stake, but their very freedoms and livelihoods.
Amazing isn't it how the crooks of the left get to walk free thanks to the media and so many DAs being Lunatic Lefties.
They are?? Mostly I see them either getting off with a slap on the writst ala Bergler, or not even being confronted with their criminality. The St. Louis RAT being indicted is a good start, but there are many more who deserve the same treatment and probably won't get it.
A terrible message is being sent to the children of this country. That you can get off scott free if you are a liberal.
