Too late. Once on the list, there is only one way off.
Thank goodness for educated people like yourself! you can say that again, lies have a way of catching up big time, and truth from the soul, will always prevail. Some cannot live within the lies, some are only about lies and cover ups.

No matter the consequences, and no man is or will ever be perfect. People have a way of putting certain people on a pedestal, that should never be put there.

I know many people different races and relgions, who feel something fishy about this whole situation. And feel that there are many who need to be held accountable.

And who cares how high this does go, not me, because when you choose to lie, and you know the truth, that needs to come out.

Are you implying you think something didn't "seem quite right" with the election?

Oh boy, here we go!

I feel sure the affair is secondary, and he knows his affair will come out in the public anyway as he is being investigated heavily by the investigation committee over the Lybia cover-up.

It's better than watching Chris Matthews, you know, the guy who said he was glad Sandy happened. It's better than watching him get a thrill up and down his leg.

I find it interesting that the president of the United States can engage in sexual activity with an intern and he doesn't have to resign but the CIA head does. I find that a bit of a disconnect.

I'm a little confused as to why the Wingers are excited. You all sound like birds in a pet shop!

I thought Petraous was one of you idols?

A novel thought.

I think that in the wake of Obama's election, the conspiracy theory crowd is having to make everything that happens into a direct piece of fallout from Obama's win.

If there's a tornado tomorrow, it's god's punishment - not a natural weather pattern.
If a lawmaker dies in a car crash, it's because they knew too much - not because thousands of Americans die in car crashes.
If anyone resigns, it was because they were stonewalled - not because they exercised poor judgement or were simply done with their post.
If a business lays off ten people, it's because of Obamacare - not because they had expanded operations unnecessarily at some point and had excess staff.
If a company closes its doors, it's because of Obamacare - not because they have been insolvent for years.
