The Democrats have certainly been guilty of excess and some fraud over the years, but nothing that holds a candle to what the current GOP leadership is doing.

Our democracy is broken.

Sorry spence but thats crap. Your understatement of Democratic abuses and corruption is as transparent as glass. No better no worse just different.

Come on..........What decade of politics do you want to begin dissecting? Why don't you start by excusing this:
- The only president ever impeached on grounds of personal malfeasance
- Most number of convictions and guilty pleas by friends and associates*
- Most number of cabinet officials to come under criminal investigation
- Most number of witnesses to flee country or refuse to testify
- Most number of witnesses to die suddenly
- First president sued for sexual harassment.
- First president accused of rape.
- First first lady to come under criminal investigation
- Largest criminal plea agreement in an illegal campaign contribution case
- First president to establish a legal defense fund.
- First president to be held in contempt of court
- Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions
- Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions from abroad

And thats the tip of the iceberg.

You're doing too much cut and paste and not enough thinking...

What crime is he guilty of?

Perhaps you could cut and paste from another righty hate site.

Besides, you do realize Clinton is no longer President don't you?
