The facts of this week's column are old-hat to Freepers. But maybe the conclusions, including the parallel to alcolhics, are new.

Happy New Year Billybob.

I happened to catch Hillary chatting it up with Boy George this morning, giving her the opportunity to claim Obama was flipflopping on his "No Lobbyist" since his campaign chairman was one.

Boy George let her slide on her old campaign manager David Rosen who is now a convicted felon.

Excellent post... agree...

"There is such a thing as a would-be defendant who “beats the rap.”

Carl Bernstein's book, " A Woman in Charge" gave a nonchalant but detailed, sophisticated, comprehensive, and revealing account of the crimes that Hildabeast and Bubba got away with.

OJ and Hillary were both declared ‘not guilty’.

Why, in your opinion, haven’t Bill & Hill been prosecuted?

Speaking of people who went off on the wild side and seemed omnipresent in the media and speaking of the issue of redemption; notice that we haven’t heard much from Paris Hilton lately? I’m not saying she’s turned into St. Theresa, but apparently she’s got herself a lot more under control lately.

GRRRRREAT article, Congressman!

Most criminals never stop unless they are incarcerated or eliminated (or if they are young enough...counselled, advised, scolded...by loved ones). Having somewhat faced incarceration and being close to loved ones, Brittany has hope. Hope disappeared in Hillary’s rear-view mirror. The only loved ones close to her that are left are Chelsea, her mom and perhaps her siblings. Incarceration probably wouldn’t rehabilitate her. The great equalizer will eliminate her.

Nice column but the correct spelling is Britney. Otherwise good points.

excellent comparisons, power and money are as destructive [maybe moreso in some ways] as chemicals to the 'user' as well as those whose lives are destroyed by the action...

John, do you have a ping list ???

One succumbed to the demon, and died alone of his disease.

As the mother of two type 1 diabetics and wife of a melanoma survivor, I can't begin to describe how I feel when people call putting alcohol into one's body a disease.
