Party of governing, law, and accountability

ILLUSTRATED: This commutation gives Democrats carte blanche to wear the cloak of lawfulness. All are accountable.

There is no ranting, raving, and rage on this blog. The three R’s are reason, relevance, and rhetoric. ("Rhetoric" is a maligned word that means the art of persuasion). With the Libby commutation here’s what we can say, (there’s a pattern here).

“Tort reform” call it “Access to Justice”. It’s about accountability. No person or company is above the law.

“White Collar Crime”, call it “Lock up criminals on street corners and criminals in corner offices.” It’s about accountability. No person or company is above the law.

“Regulations”, call them "Laws.” It’s about accountability. No person, official, or company is above the law.
