But he works in the West Wing of the White House.

Jerome:

Yes, the GOP went after Clinton, as well they should. And yes, the DEMS are after Bush, as well they should.

It really isn't the person so much as the process anymore. Continuingly pandering and propping up the curropt process leads to curropt results.. It's like a see-saw, One party's leaders and their followers on each side. Only instead of one set of leaders jumping off, they both jump off and yank the support out from under their followers.

Peace
Joe

Why not an answer to the statements as opposed to the jokes.

Does this subject challenge your comfort zones?

You guys seemed very comfortable with discussions of other topics.


What a man believes upon grossly insufficient evidence is an index into his desires -- desires of which he himself is often unconscious. If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way. - Bertrand Russell

As I noted above, experts from various sources argue that the document seems to be fairly routine, and not the power-grab initially thought. Quit being self-righteous. It makes you look like an asshole.

The whitehouse having f b i files illegally is "fairly routine"; come on you have got to be kidding.
