There is no slippery slope here. What has everyone in an uproar is because it is the first time that the Justice Department in an investigation has actually searched a Congressional office. Who cares if there were subpoenas for the requested items to be turned over, quite clearly the Congressman is a criminal, one who breaks the laws, why should he now follow them because he was caught????
dmk | Then why are Gingridge's undies in a bunch? --- help me Instant Runoff Voting, you're my only hope --- There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence. |
