What makes democracy theoretically worthwhile at all is its practice leads to more enlightened assessment of policy options, not the tendency to devolve to the rule of the more effective thrower of shit.   

Right now American democracy is not looking good at all next to dictatorships in some other countries.

All powers involved friend or foe, it isn't a stretch to say that the more power one has, the more one thinks they can get away with anything.

Ethics is when you stop before you go too far, or when called out you step down.

And I agree, right now, our open system based on checks and balances is under threat.


The system of checks and balances no longer exist to be threatened.

As long as there is inequity, and there will always will be, the only choice in humanity is how much those without can put up with the abuse of those whom should know better but dont care.

Even the most powerful abusers don't last forever.

Donald Trump slept with a pornstar while his wife was pregnant?  WHO CARES?
Newt Gingrich cheated on his wife while she was dying of cancer?  THAT'S OKAY!
Dennis Hastert molested children?  WE STILL HAVE A RULE NAMED FOR HIM!  

Oh and let's not forget Matt Gaetz  is a fucking drunk driver.

Give me a fucking break with this virtue signaling bullshit.

SO MUCH THIS!^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Nixon  called his minions to break an enter, not for a blowjob, but to undermine an election. 

I think everyone gets that nobody likes being lied to in a relationship, but nobody deserves  this.

RE: Katie Hill Resigns
Why did Nixon resign?

Because he knew he was guilty of something?

Safe bet, that...


And why do you suppose Rep.Hill resigned - if she is the victim here?


You have your blin( D)ers firmly in place if you believe her bullshit.

My guess - she didn't want to get tossed out for sleeping with subordinates...


Personally - I could give a shit who is banging whoever - but that's the rules they wrote for themselves....

Because some people accept they did something wrong and have the morality to accept it asshole!

Hill did the same thing.

Yes, both parties should be held to the same standard. Workplace affairs are a fucking nuisance in politics. If you can't manage to not fuck people you work with when you're married, sort yourself out. I think it's obvious I'm not talking about open relationships, Brian, so the term "cheating" still applies.

That there exists a nude photo of the woman on the Internet that was posted by her opponents is pretty much the line for evidence, olb. She was revenge porned, and that's pretty fucked up.

RE: Katie Hill Resigns
Shouldn't you know why she resigned, OLB, what with bitching about her soapbox?

Quote:"I am leaving now because of a double standard," Hill said. "I am leaving because I no longer want to be used as a bargaining chip. I am leaving because I didn't want to be peddled by papers and blogs and websites used by shameless operatives for the dirtiest gutter politics that I have ever seen, and the right wing media to drive clicks and expand their audience by distributing intimate photos of me taken without my knowledge, let alone my consent, for the sexual entertainment of millions."

I wouldn't put up with that shit either. How about you?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

And she' s so innocent she didn' t know that taking naked pictures of yourself might just be a bad idea if you're going into politics? Ditto sleeping with the help.

She's pure bullshit.

Just another politician who got caught with their pants down.

I am 100% with you on this.

Revenge porn is beyond the pale.

What does taking a nude have to do with innocence? Whats next, you gonna start handing out scarlet letters?

Sex crime.

The only person caught with their pants down, and their dick out..here..is you, ya fuckin troll, lol. Coincidentally, that you're over there pulling on your pecker is exactly why she resigned.
