(17,260 posts)Most people on this board disagree, but you gave your reasons and I read them carefully. I disagree that if Hillary was the SC and wrote the exact same report it would be positively received. That's naive. The corporate media loves to attack Biden and Clinton and would at the least present it as a Dem catfight. You are very protective of Garland and I don't think I've ever written a negative word about him. He was beyond reproach in how he handled this. For most of us, that act is getting old though. Follow the law? Sure. But this bending over backwards to appear fair in every way possible to appease a party that literally wants to end our democracy is not the way to handle an authoritarian movement. Allowing the double standard that requires only our morals to be exemplary is dangerous. So add me to the others who disagree with your post.
