  Taking it back to the root of the problem, it was the rise of parasites such as murdoch and limbaugh that planted this putrid seed, and it all began in earnest on Capitol Hill during the Gingrich years, the shameless political carnival of hypocrisy with the Starr Report digging into Clinton’s finances but after nearly 100 million dollars and finding nothing, it emerged only with Monica Lewinsky.

  Then this gang of republican serial marital cheaters in Congress went full-steam with it as motive for interrogation, then impeachment as product of that interrogation.

  “We are going to get you no matter the cost and the means to do it, even if we make a laughing stock of our own nation in the eyes of the world.”
  Blinded by hysterical hatred. Like Clinton, I would have treated these contemptible assholes with contempt, they deserved a “go fuck yourself” attitude and nothing else.
