It may never happen at all. We sat around with bated breath hoping the latest scandal would be the one that took Slick Willy down. What we found out is that RATS want crooked leaders because they will grab more loot for them. The RAT rule of law is simple: when the RATS rule, the law only applies to YOU!
True, but we have more media now than then. Then, the MSM was able to protect former President Clinton, and get him re-elected.
The MSM has lost a lot of credibility and power since then, and we have gained some.
While the amount of media that we have is still tiny, a small amount of truth is quite a bit of disinfectant for the MSMs lies.
The problem then was that a lot of people really saw no problem with Bill Clinton's relations with Ms. Lewinski, and thought the Republicans were being nosy busybodies. If Mrs. Clinton was willing to let her husband's affairs slide, what right did the the Republicans have to complain about them?
I really don't think the same issue applies here. There is some danger that the administration will be able to convince people suffering from Liberal Mind Fog Disorder both that they are so incompetent as to not realize that letting firearms disappear untraceably into criminal gangs is going to get people killed, and they they are not so incompetent as to be entrusted with control of the government, but I think even a hardcore liberal would have a hard time arguing that the administration's actions aren't sufficiently suspicious that Republicans are justified in demanding some answers.
Thanks Nateman.
