You know what's really sad......its not that politicians, especially democrat politicians will pull this crap.....its not that Dept Heads, nominated by their party President, apparently feel obligated that party loyalty trumps rule of law......no, what's really sad is what the media has become. What was once an arm of objective news reporting, of the facts & regardless of what political party someone belongs to, has largely become a propoganda machine for one particular party. I could bet my house that the mainstream media would come unglued, with 24/7 wall to wall coverage of a GOP President and THEIR Secretary of State being given a pass, by THEIR Justice Dept, on at minimum, gross conflict of interested, but what the mountain of circumstantial evidence points to...overt corruption, if not felony activity
But because Clinton has a D after her name, the media will remain as quiet as when the IRS was caught inflicting their arm on conservative PAC's, as quiet as when Clinton was caught lying about Benghazi, as quiet as when Obama was declared biggest lie of the year, with his you can keep your Dr/Insurance pledge, and as quiet as when Clinton was caught lying about her private e-mail server. There'll be the occasional story here and there, buried on the bottom of page 12, and quickly ignored to report on the latest transgender transgression
So, no, none of this is acceptable. And if this were a Condi Rice, who pulled this crap, and it was President Reagan's Justice Dept that had every intention of looking the other way, I'd be demanding the AG's resignation, Rice's resignation, and sure as hell wouldn't support her to be President
