4. Yawn. Same old, same old.

According to the Republicans, nothing came before Clinton, except tax cuts that resulted in the 90s economic good times, (which turned out to be a bubble created by Republican deregulation.)

9. Everything, but everything is all connected to Clinton

Freepers are mentally ill.

I'd say give 'em lobotomies, but how do lobotomize a brain the size of a walnut?

7. Anyone besides me alarmed at the increasingly free use of "traitor"?

I've posted several times about this, I'm in my 50's and I have never heard that term applied before to people who are simply expressing dissent with the politics and policies of the administration in power. "Traitor" has legal ramifications, that is, deliberate betrayal of this country causing significant harm. Kind of like outing an undercover CIA agent, for example.

8. Defining your enemy through rhetoric is an old tactic.

Grannylib has a good link to a memo that Gingrich circulated that describes the method:

10. It is neo-stalinist

there were a lot of 'traitors' in the USSR too. You know, people who had opinions that were slightly different from the glorious leaders.

11. What those things say to me is...

Clinton wanted to get the right person or people behind what happened. He didn't want to just put a warm body behind bars and call it good. I think he had higher standards and people think that a body, any body, for a crime is calling it good. And that's so messed up.
