Funny, National Public Radio spent quite a bit of time on the indictments today. Twenty-nine count indictment sought by the DOJ after a two year investigation initiated by the DOJ under two African American Attorney Generals during the presidency of an African American president. I really don't there is going to be a whole lot of rallying around Rep Fatah.

Bull****, if that was the case Clinton would be perp walking in leg irons. Obama would have been impeached by both houses. Holder would be sitting in a prison cell instead of working on wall street.

Not to mention all of Obamas psychophantic minions in government tossed out on their ear or slapped in handcuffs.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh yes, let no thread go by (when it's a dem) to say that it also happens to repubs....LOL....


Delusional? The repubs won the house and the senate and was one of those a complete landslide?


I guess in your delusional word, that is not considered winning elections...

Yes, I think it was, now who is delusional? Your failure is noted.

Let me repeat. The investigation of Fatah began under the Obama administration, an investigation supervised by both Obama appointees to the post of Attorney General to argue that a 29 count indictment would lead to a lenient sentence much less a pardon is utterly ridiculous.

As for the corruption that you've seen, apparently you missed both the Nixon and Reagan (128 either investigated, indicted or convicted) years.

mmmm, Isnt there another Democratic candidate being accused of filtering money through a non profit, through "speeches"?
