Also, one should acknowledge that only the Republicans have the internal rule that one must step down from leadership positions when under indictment. Nothing need be proven, and it's automatic. The Democrats, utterly devoid of any sense of shame or sense of duty, have no such rule for themselves.
So, in order to cripple the Republican leadership, bogus charges are brought, and for the duration of the time that it takes for them to be swept away, the Democrats are free from one of their sharpest and toughest opponents, and in effect, they get to play the second string. All the while, they get to cluck their forked tongues about the 'ethical lapses' soooo common to their friends across the aisle.
They make me sick. What's worse is the canine loyalty to this corrupt and unprincipled mob shown by their willing accomplices in the media. If anything destroys this democracy, it'll be this unholy alliance, warping public perceptions into a demogoguery that 'Kingfish' Long would've envied.
The stakes of this game isn't just tactical control of government, or a partisan advantage in this or that branch of government. It is for something much, much greater, and the Democrats are willing to bet everything that make us Americans...so that they can get power again.
Over my dead body.
