O.K. Mr. K.
Long-standing American values and those that held them have been systematically trashed by the President and the people he surrounds himself with.
Oh, please. What values might those be? "Family Values", like those exemplified by Ronald Reagan, who shipped his kids off to boarding school at the earliest opportunity? Who didn't recognize adopted son Michael at his high school graduation?
That is not illegal and is not impeachable - but resentment must be building even in those as honorable and stoic as someone like John McCain. Others, lacking heroic restraint, are responding in-kind to the smears of people like James Carville.
And how, pray tell, can the smears of people like Carville compare to the smears of people like Ken Starr, and his "secret" grand jury proceedings? Not to mention Neutron Newt, one of the world champion smear artists. In one of the recent revelations, it came out that in Helen Chenoweth's last election, he came by to play up the alleged infidelities of her opponent. Think he's going to do a repeat performance on that one? Helen Chenoweth has to be one of the worst, aside from her own affair she's perpetually sucking up to the militia types. Plenty good for Newt, though.
Politics has gotten to be quite the blood sport. To blame it on Clinton is fairly ridiculous, near as I can tell. Clinton wasn't around for Willy Horton, and Newt's been playing attack politics since the time of Jim Wright, at least. You want to blame it all on Carville, or Clinton, it looks like you have eyes for only one side of the aisle. Very similar to the ongoing campaign finances debate. Once again, you tell me who to look for in the next election, I'll reconsider. Right now, I don't see a lot of concern for the good of the country from anybody.
Cheers, Dan. |
