“Hey now children, what’s that sound? Everybody look what’s goin’ down…” Or words to that effect (tip ‘o the cap to Buffalo Springfield).
Is it possible that binary bipolar bunch in Washington DC is trying to muscle their way in on the legend of the Hatfield’s and the McCoy’s? Or are they going highbrow on us playing into one of Bill the Bards better tales, the one involving the Montague and Capulet crews? Hmmm… not sure if they’re going hillbilly low or egghead high, but that doesn’t matter.
What does matter is that they are definitely and deliberately staging a media circus of the circumstantial trying to keep something important hidden. Crooked/corrupt politicians are kind of old hat, to be expected. But credit where credit is due: the modern spin doctors, caught in a terrible pinch, are playing a fine gambit: accuse the retired politician of treason with one national enemy to obscure the case accusing a current politician of treason with another national enemy. Hmmmm… back when I raised kids if I caught even a whiff of such tactics I grounded both of ’em for a week.
Maybe, just maybe, this might be a good time for the Libertarian and Green parties to offer shelter and sanctuary to whatever honorable public servants might remain affiliated with the feuding fools?
