The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs and explosions and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, prejudices...to be found only in the minds of men. For the record, prejudices can kill...and suspicion can destroy...and a thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all of its own -- for the children and the children yet unborn. And the pity of it is...that these things cannot be confined...to the Beltway Zone.

Simply thoughts: Hillary's email abuses are a crime, yet Trump's server being connected to Russian banks is not.

Attitudes: Right-wingers claim Lefties are traitors while Left-wingers declare Righties to be treasonous

Prejudices: Women fail miserably as leaders.

Given this information, I submit the following, referring to the selection of a scapegoat:

WHEREAS The Republican Party has no clue on how to live modern life without caves and clubs, AND

WHEREAS no female is to ever hold dominion over any male, AND

WHEREAS to Republicans, the law is something to be applied to everyone else,

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED

That James Comey did violate the law at the potential cost of his career, and possibly his freedom, in the attempt to prevent the election of Hillary Clinton by any means available, AND

That James Comey would probably be treated in a manner similarly to Scooter Libby in that he would have to go to trial, probably at his own expense, AND

That in the instance of James Comey being found guilty, will have his sentence commuted to time served, AND

That if a major GOP donor is feeling generous and a sense of duty to enhance party loyalty, will provide a comfortable sinecure to James Comey as partial restitution for the difficulties he endured in his service to the Republican Party and it's God-granted right to rule in perpetuity.

So Sayeth My Snarky Side

So what say you about this idea that Comey -as some claim- violated both the law and professional standards to manipulate the coming election?
