I know there are a lot of political junkies here who think the disgracefull activities of elected officials may somehow be "pardoned" due to thier exalted status as elected officials, but I would argue that is not the way the constitution of the USA outlined our government.
Okkie dokie, your naieve. Look, unless we get public pressure to bear on the rats nothing is going to chaneg. Going by the constitution we have lost. Its over as it stands right now. The issue is how do we change that dynamic.
