The even bigger issue than McDonnell’s ethical issues is the corrupt DOJ being used as a political weapon, which again was the main point of the article. And the IRS is yet another example of federal, taxpayer funded agencies being used to target political opponents of the party in power; that is what is more disturbing in my opinion. The DOJ lost the case but is saying they will keep prosecuting. They relentlessly punish their enemies and pursue political vendettas at the taxpayer’s expense . Where is your outrage at this?
I’ve commented plenty of times on those outrages, and will continue to do so.
You are defending a corrupt politician by pointing out corruption elsewhere. The “everybody does it” defense.
I’m against corruption. Wherever it is found in government. How about you?
