It’s the seriousness of the accusations. Don’t you remember that one?
You mean the old tried and true Rat reasoning: “These allegations are both persist ent and disturbing. We have no conclusive evidence of wrongdoing, but the seriousness of the allegations, and the weight of circumstantial information, compel an effort to establish the facts.”
Ahhhh, but it is only the seriousness of the accusations IF the accused is a REPUBLICAN. Democrats skate, no matter what the accusations. ALWAYS.
