j.g. your concerns are valid ones, however, when you have the Executive branch of government stealing FBI files and rifling through them for months. As well as abusing the power of their office as deeply as this one, then I believe your concerns about our future are unwarranted. In today's lawyer driven political society, anyone and everyone in Washington could claim lawyer/client privilege. The simple questions which should be answered are.

1. Who are the Presidents lawyers?
2. Was this person one of them?.
3. How many lawyers are reasonable for the President to have at taxpayers expense?

A private citizen can't force the government to hire and pay for dozens and dozens of lawyers. Why should the President? This is simply another slick way to hide the truth. Anyone following this episode and the pathetic stonewalling from the Executive branch can see that.

We'll soon see what the voters think of this charade of leadership. The polls are mostly predicting small gains for the Republicans. I have a funny feeling they are about to be proven wrong again. Did you know that about 50% of the people called for a poll simply hang up? How accurate can they really be?

Have you noticed that the liberal media in lockstep have made it a norm to report polls as actual news now that they are favorable to the President and Democrats. When they aren't, they simply never get reported. Strange hmmmmm.

I couldn't believe the harmonious whining from the media over those few commercials the Republicans ran which simply described the truth. I guess the truth is not in vogue these days. The media seems to admire people who are liers or spin masters. Especially if they favor liberal Democratic policies.

I don't believe a more compelling case of liberal media bias can be made than to view the hysterical way in which they all snivilled about those couple of truthful commercials. In lockstep like a proud propaganda machine.

Thank goodness talk radio and the internet provide a balance to the liberal dogma pervading television and news print.
