How an Ex-Aide to President Clinton Stashed Classified Documents

Submitted by Jill Lawless, Dec 21, 2006 11:08

What a farce! If Berger were a Republican, he would be thrown to the sharks naked. This is the main reason I am and will continue to be a Republican. Democrats define the word "hypocrisy." Bill Clinton was and still is a liar, his wife is a liar, Sandy Berger is a liar and most of the leaders of the Democratic Party are liars. Even with all the evidence of their lies, half of the American people either don't give a crap or they are sadly misinformed. It makes my blood boil to think that if you are a Democrat, commit a crime, knowingly lie to thousands, take illegal campaign contributions and commit adultery you are praised, given kudos out the yahoo, re-elected to office, and eventually become Commander in Chief. What an America we live in -- you think our founding fathers would be proud?
