Dragging out the investigations into wrong-doing
wont get votes next election.
On the contrary, it will turn off the voters.
Voter burnout is why the GOP is delaying the investigations.

The Unitary Executive started by Nixon and continued
thru today by key members of his staff that has served in every administration since then will continue.

Time spent in the military at the end of part 1 (not much too it)

In order to work towards stamping out poverty
we need to get to the root causes.
In a previous diary of mine someone mentioned
that homelessness is just a symptom and he asked
if my time spent homeless was because of mental illness

They listen religiously to Rush, and they take everything he says as truth.
They rush out to buy multiple copies of a Chicago newspaper just because it has a picture of Clinton that appears to have horns on him, from the Bulls symbol on the flipside.
They blame Democrats for their problems.
