    And Mitch McConnell’s ethics are for destroying the country if he doesn’t get his way? And where were George’s ethics when he destabilized the Middle East?

    Slinging accusations at people without hard evidence is also rather unethical, isn’t it?

    Pretty funny, but in the real world, we are left with no option but to choose between evils. so there are two relevant questions. 1) Is she worse than the alternative? 2) How high do ethics considerations rank when deciding on a presidential candidate? For example, a highly ethical person (by their ethics) who is determined to start nuclear war, is not going to get my vote.

    Obama was criticized for saying he wanted to limit donations to a relatively small amount per individual, but then taking money from whoever sent it in whatever amount they sent. He admitted that was inconsistent, but he simply had no choice. You have to play the game that is being played. If you want to play tennis, that’s fine. But if you show up with a tennis racket and the other team is playing hardball, you are going to lose and wind up with a really messed up tennis racket.

    “Giustra took specific aim at a report this week in the New York Times that suggested his contributions to the Clinton Foundation were aimed at gaining the blessing of the State Department — then about to be headed by Hillary Clinton — for a lucrative uranium deal involving Russian and Kazakh interests.“There is not one shred of evidence to back up the Times’ conclusions,” Giustra wrote. “This is not about me, but rather an attempt to tear down Secretary Clinton and her presidential campaign. If this is what passes for investigative journalism in the United States, it is very sad.”“I sold all of my stakes in the uranium company — Uranium One — in the fall of 2007, after it merged with another company,” Giustra said. “I would note that those were sold at least 18 months before Hillary Clinton became the Secretary of State. No one was speculating at that time that she would become the Secretary of State.” He called the Times report “a wildly speculative, innuendo-laced article.”http://www.ibtimes.com/top-clinton-foundation-donor-says-his-money-had-nothing-do-support-colombian-trade-1895948The New York Times get information from a Republican operative who is selling a book and supposedly verifies the fact but fails to interview the donor or get the other side of the story. Past the smell test? I doubt any politicians are quote clean as big money and lobbyist have easy access. It is not as if lobbyist does not write legislation or portions of legislation. The whole non-profit thing is way out of control especially with politician foundations and political advocacy groups.

    Cerabooge: Excellent point indeed on having someone follow THEIR “ethics” – right into more wars over religious intolerance, followed only by radical nationalism- called “ethics”. The U.S. today is plagued with radicals from both forms and their recombinant MORE dangerous folks.

    Nothing is more dangerous than theocracy, and we’ve got the same folks wanting to attack Iran, because it’s got the form of government, they want HERE!

    Lady Liberal’s defenders claim there isn’t a “shred” of evidence to prove wrong doing. Who says Liberals don’t have a sense of irony?

    Yep, good point. And not only poisoning the well, but also the debating version of yelling “SQUIRREL!”.

    Did the GOP ‘war machine’ security wash Hillary’s email servers to purposely destroy evidence of wrong-doing? Someone did and I really don’t think it was the GOP.
