5. There is no honor in the White House
If these folks had one ounce of integrity
there would be firings and resignings BEFORE
there would be any need for criminal indictments.

The Bush White House is corrupt to the core.

7. "will evade charges for now" -- "EVADE"???
That's pretty strong language. Avoidance is OK ... evasion is typically illicit, either morally or ethically.
