Mr. Crabtree:
Hillary Clinton has never been charged with a crime, so she cannot be
prosecuted for anything. In stark contrast Trump has been in court many
times, and most recently had to pay out $25 million for his defrauding
students at his fake university and a $25,000 fine concerning his phony
foundation. Years earlier he settled a housing discrimination suit in which
he and his father were clearly guilty.
Millions of dollars was spent on the Whitewater investigation and she was
cleared, and the special prosecutor in that case came out in defense of
Hillary during the election. None of the Benghazi charges stuck in the
9-hour hearing, so, yes, the desperate GOP Congressmen looked like fools.
You are the one that is playing a cowardly game of evasion. You have to
show that the Benghazi charges do stick, or you have lost the argument pure
and simple.
Eagerly awaiting your responses,
nfg

A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they
shall never sit in.
-Greek proverb
“Enlightenment is man’s emergence from his self-imposed immaturity.
Immaturity is the inability to use one’s understanding without guidance
from another. This immaturity is self- imposed when its cause lies not in
lack of understanding, but in lack of resolve and courage to use it without
guidance from another. Sapere Aude! ‘Have courage to use your own
understand-ing!—that is the motto of enlightenment.
--Immanuel Kant
