The greatest punishment…really?

QUOTE OF THE DAY…NO! MAKE THAT QUOTE OF THE MILLENIA

I'm a criminal. My choice is not be President or go to jail.  Let me think about it.

I’m a criminal. My choice is not be President or go to jail. Let me think about it.

Wall Street Journal editorial, “Democracy’s verdict on Clinton”, 23Nov16:

“The voters ultimately rendered that verdict (re: Sec. Clinton’s mishandling of confidential national security information) on November 8, and being denied the Presidency is far more painful punishment  than a misdemeanor or minor felony conviction.”

Our comment:

What petty thief or serial rapist has not been denied the Presidency? To extend the WSJ’s remarks to a not-illogical, albeit extreme conclusion, haven’t those folks “suffered” enough?

(Who said a competent investigation would have found just ‘minor’ felony offenses?)

We comment. You decide.         DLH
