Senate Ethics Committee Gives Cory Booker a Pass

An Ayn Rand moment, Senator comits violation of Senate rules, and is not liable for it. So, this is why the Sec State used her own email, the FBI director found no violations, and Trump colluded with Russia. If they want it, they get it. Just like grapefruit....

    That is true, I do not expect any more from them, but such a blatent disregard, in public, of their rules just totally disables any need to follow any other rules. This is what they seem to be missing, it's the "lead by example" principle, and so we get Hillary and BHO....Then they claim to be such "great leaders". Remember, that is what Kim Jong Un called himself in North Korea...

    I've said the Founding Fathers attempted to lay the cornerstone of a justice system for the new nation, but today we have a legal system and they are not the same.

    Regarding ethics...when I was on the City Council, I was selected to write the Ethics Standards for my city. One councilmember (male x 4...I was the only lady) stated, 'we selected her because she is the only one who knew how to spell ETHICS.'

    My favorite all time cartoon showed a newly elected Congressman in front of the camera saying, 'Now that I have been elected, my first duty is to get myself re-elected.' That's the kind of attitude we all admire! Intelligence quotient of about 12!

    A congressional ethics committee is no different than the human rights councils at the UN.

    Thus is shown the difference between justice and “social justice.”

    In a country with a justice system (instead of a just-us system) Edward Snowden would be a hero and Hitlery and Oscammer would be executed for treason.

    The US con-gress has been a wretched hive of scum and villainy for a century.
