"No, events have shown that it is Clinton who is a man with no principles or sense of shame as he has declared war on the US system of justice and continues to lie."

First of all, the US system of justice is being used by BOTH sides for political power and influence. Its naive to think otherwise when its so obvious. In a very real sense, that was one of the intentions of the founding fathers... to allow and promote a continuing argument and struggle to determine what justice should be over time (because justice is not and never will be a fixed and absolute set of conditions).

At the same time continuing power of final interpretation through argument and vote is given to the judicial branch.

What we should all be concerned over and should abolish is the special prosecutor's role. The special prosecutor is not part of the system of justice but exists because Congress, the Executive and Judicial branches don't have the political will to exercise their assigned responsibilities provided in the Constitution.

The "system" of justice in this country never intended to have, nor does it in any way benefit from this abomination of democratic process.

When you really analyze the commentary of many of Clinton supporters you can sense a deep hatred for people who have a religious compass for living their lives.

Furthermore, much of the commentary is racist in that it projects an anti-white undercurrent. Yes, there are many white supporters, but if you can believe the demographics of the opinion polls, the favorable rating for Clinton is 90%+. Why? Watch every photo op that Clinton's camp arranges. Who did he advertise as his moral counselors following his admission?

This very bad for the country. Using their hate for the so called "Religious Right" or the "Right Wing" as an excuse to give Clinton a blank check to do whatever he wants to is dangerous.
