What about accountability?

Watching this Duke Case and the Imus dust-up is really making me question whether there is any true justice out there.

With the Duke case you got an entire University turning on its own students at the word of a drug addled stripper. It takes them a year, and $3,000,000 to get cleared. And while the students are declared innocent, Duke Professors are still decrying them, and still argue that a crime was committed. So now that we know this is a farce, when are we going to see justice for these 3? When will the Duke faculty be held to account? When will the stripper and Mike Nifong see justice? Where's the media drumbeats about rushing to judgements now?

Imus is a fossilized ass. To grovel before Al "Tawana Brawley" Sharpton's microphone is a travesty. That's why I'd fire Imus. Sharpton to this day has refused to apologize to the men he and Tawana Brawley defamed. And Sharpton is held up as a hero for Blacks. If he's a hero, then blacks have some serious problems to sort out, before we even get to the man.

Moving right along,  what's starting to bug me is Andrew McCarthy over at NRO. He's actually arguing that its counter-productive to hold Nancy Pelosi accountable for violating the Logan Act. He admits that she broke the law, but Bush would be better off using it as a "teachng moment" and get a dialogue started. FUCK THAT. She broke the damn law. If Joe Schmoe did that he'd be getting ass-raped by Manuel in the clink five minutes after he got back to the states. All not investigating does is prove that liberal affiliation and political power put you above the law. Whether its a Kennedy crashing his mustang into the Capitol or DiFi steering contracts to hubby or Dingy Harry and his shady land deals there are no consequences if you're a lib.

I really think that the conservative base didn't support Republicans last year because they fell down on the most fundamental function of government, enforcing the law. Whether it was the revolving door immigration enforcement or letting reporters reveal national security secrets in time of war it was disheartening to watch Republicans in governement twiddle their thumbs and do nothing. They let Tom Delay get taken down with nary a peep. No one is going to vote for a party that doesn't fight back, cause no one wants to back a loser.

 

Heh, how's that for stream of conscienciousness.
