March 20, 201412 yr Wasn't trying to soften the blow. If the Bribe was taken, then the politician needs to be punished, and the AG is wrong for not doing so. My only point was that too many times here, examples like this are used to paint a picture that all liberals are bad. But the other side of the coin is rarely shown, despite the fact that there are just as many examples of wrongdoing. I've kinda had had it with just about all of our politicians It ebbs and flows with who is in power but you're right that more Left misdeeds are reported and that is a function of the greater number of Right leaning people on here. However, if you look you'll see that the majority of the threads are from a small select group. There is no problem finding scandals from both sides of the political spectrum and neither side has a big lead in the number of violations.
March 21, 201412 yr It is against the law as a politician to take a bribe isnt it? An out and out bribe yes. But, "political contributions" are ok. In my mind, many of these are bribes.

March 25, 201412 yr When you can turn one person into 6 votes of course they are going to oppose voter ID laws. There is probably lots of money flowing into swing states to hold off voter identification laws.
