Illegal to be a Republican?

If you’re going to commit crimes, it pays to be a prominent Democrat. Then, the sky’s the limit!

"In 2006, Democrat and major Clinton contributor Jeffrey Epstein was nabbed in Palm Beach in a massive police investigation into his hiring of local underage schoolgirls for sex, which I’m told used to be a violation of some kind of statute in the Palm Beach area.

The police presented Limbaugh prosecutor Krischer with boatloads of evidence, including the videotaped statements of five of Epstein’s alleged victims, the procurer of the girls for Epstein and 16 other witnesses.

But the same prosecutor who spent three years maniacally investigating Limbaugh’s alleged misuse of back-pain pills refused to bring statutory rape charges against a Clinton contributor. Enraging the police, who had spent months on the investigation, Krischer let Epstein off after a few hours on a single count of solicitation of prostitution. The Clinton supporter walked, and his victims were branded as whores.

The Republican former House Whip Tom DeLay is currently under indictment for a minor campaign finance violation. Democratic prosecutor Ronnie Earle had to empanel six grand juries before he could find one to indict DeLay on these pathetic charges ? and this is in Austin, Texas (the Upper West Side with better-looking people).

That final grand jury was so eager to indict DeLay that it indicted him on one charge that was not even a crime ? and which has since been tossed out by the courts.

After winning his primary despite the indictment, DeLay decided to withdraw from the race rather than campaign under a cloud of suspicion, and Republicans lost one of their strongest champions in Congress.

Compare DeLay’s case with that of Rep. William “The Refrigerator” Jefferson, Democrat. Two years ago, an FBI investigation caught Jefferson on videotape taking $100,000 in bribe money. When the FBI searched Jefferson’s house, they found $90,000 in cash stuffed in his freezer. Two people have already pleaded guilty to paying Jefferson the bribe money.

Two years later, Bush’s Justice Department still has taken no action against Jefferson. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi recently put Rep. William Jefferson on the Homeland Security Committee.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Democrat, engaged in a complicated land swindle, buying a parcel of land for $400,000 and selling it for over $1 million a few years later. (At least it wasn’t cattle futures!)

Reid also received more than four times as much money from Jack Abramoff (nearly $70,000) as Tom DeLay ($15,000). DeLay returned the money; Reid refuses to do so. Why should he? He’s a Democrat.

Former Clinton national security adviser Sandy Berger literally received a sentence of community service for stuffing classified national security documents in his pants and then destroying them ? big, fat federal felonies.

But Scooter Libby is facing real prison time for forgetting who told him about some bozo’s wife.

Bill Clinton was not even prosecuted for obstruction of justice offenses so egregious that the entire Supreme Court staged a historic boycott of his State of the Union address in 2000."

Trying to defend Republicans? Better believe that’s an indictment!

What you need to “SEE”, all politicians are crooks. The dividing line for most is the fact that when a Democrat lies, he is only hurting himself. When a Republican is caught lying, he is hurting everyone BUT himself! WAKE UP

Christ. You are so full of shit HH… again.

Politicians are crooked. All of them…even your beloved GOP. live with it.

I’m buying shares in kool-aid!

Politicians are people. People suck.

The end.

So your proposed solution is to give them unlimited power in a ‘mixed’ economy, power over industries about which they know nothing? You propose to regulate capitalism with legalised barbarians who consider plunder and political jobbery as a way of life?

I’m for prosecuting ALL crooks, especially the hypocritical ones (including Gingrich).

Why not create a systrm in which the government can’t influence the economy at all? Sure, many capitalists are thieves and crooks — why give 'em an army and an IRS to back themselves up?

So, have a limited government which no one can use as a club over rivals. Do you want people (whom you apparently despise) to have power over you? How about LF capitalism? Then no one can abuse you.

Why give evil capitalists (who suck, as you say) a government they can bribe and use to abuse you?

At least government gives the few good people a chance to do something.

People suck. Big buisness owners have just as much power as government officials. Period.

Not buying their product won’t do shit, HH. Government is necessary.

Once again, I recommend you read the book “Jennifer Government”. It’s not entirely intellectual (being a high school teach, I’m sure you won’t mind), but it gives a pretty good representation of a pure-capitalistic dystopia.

Pure capitalism does not work. Period.
Pure communism does not work.

A mix leaning left seems to favor smaller nations, a mix leaning right seems to favor larger nations.
