Democrats simply refused to be embarrassed by ANY scandal whatsoever, but Republicans can ALWAYS be counted upon to almost eagerly absorb the full frontal blow of anything dirty the DB Media pitches into the circulatory system of America's conversations.
These currencies ebb an flow... wax and wane over time in an almost cyclical manner like 11 year sun cycles. While Ronald Reagan was in office, the dollar dropped like a rock and began one of the biggest periods of magnificent growth and prosperity this nation has ever seen. So big in fact it flowed through the earlier Bush regime you mentioned and even eight more years of one of the ditziest, dirtiest democrat regimes in history!!!
Here on this forum we did hold the U.N.’s feet to the fire over the Oil for Food program, but our government sure didn’t seem to. Neither the Democrats or the Republicans sought to make the mileage off of it that I would have. I’m not a big fan of the U.N. and this was precisely the type of thing I would have used to start the process to get us out.
I would have used the abuse of young girls and women in the north of Africa as well.
As for the Democrats, nobody holds them accountable for anything. They can side with Osama Bin Laden and his merry band of terrorists and the media stands unphased, oblivious.
You’re right. The Republicans are fair game no matter the malidy. The Democrats who never have a full plan to fix anything are still the saviors. It defies explanation other than to acknowledge how corrupt our media has become.
