Well, I will say it before someone else does, but you can make a good
argument that both Clinton and Bush got away with cheating, stealing,
and killing.  They were, however, 'called' on it, but there was no
public outcry over them being called those names.  Almost every
President in my lifetime could be called a liar, a cheat, a thief, and a
murderer, depending on who you ask, and not one of them has ever really
been held responsible for it, nor have their accusers been demonized the
way Obama's accusers have been.  Barack Obama is no different than his
predecessors, so why do we have to play by different rules now?

Interesting about his wife on The View.
I don't think journalism is dead, but it surely is endangered.
