re: #397 ggt

Get real, he may not be overtly corrupt, but you don’t get to the top of anything without paying the piper. You don’t get to be POTUS from Chicago without paying substantially.

The Resko home buying deal, Michelle’s cush job etc. etc. We hashed it all out in 2008 here. Was any of it earth-shattering? No. Rumors are still flying about Blagohairs trial and what info he is withholding. Nothing will come out that will jeopardize the Presidency. WE can bitch and moan about past corrupt presidents, the the fact is we not damage the reputation of the president. Obama is gold-plated now, as are past presidents.

History is written by the victors.

agreed that almost all pols are corrupt in some sense and usually they get a pass
