release his medical records to the public. These career smearmongers have had an inordinate amount of influence on our elections and there are no standards at all to determine how fit they are to be in such positions of power.

Brock, eg, helped get Bill Clinton impeached. That is some power to hold, to be able to smear an elected official to the point of nearly having them removed from office, with no standard to determine what mental capacities they are in possession of.

Had the Senate voted to remove Clinton, and we can thank Larry Flint for his role in ending what Brock and his unqualified, unelected cohorts put in motion, smearmongers like Brock would have overcome the PEOPLE who elected Clinton.

I'm glad all of this happened. Our electoral system is awash in morons like Rove and Brock wielding power, fueled by Corporate money, that no voter has access to.

It' way past time that ANYONE with that kind of influence over our elections, be required to produce their medical records, so we know who they are and how 'fit' they are to be given that kind of power.

I can't believe I actually agree with you for once. It has got to be something in the air - maybe there are avian swine and I just haven't caught a glimpse of them yet.

1. I have plenty of gripes with the Clinton campaign and with Hillary Clinton. Hair of anyone involved in it is not even on the radar.

2. I think he has great hair, even if I don't like his politics or political methods.

That kind of crap is childish.

I simply didn't know who David Brock was. I Googled him under images and was fascinated by his many hair stylings. I'm sorry if I offended anyone here.

I think it is petty to drag such things into political discussion. It is more of a lounge topic. Not chastising you, just being honest.

You are okay, global1. Just keep the fashion oriented things in the lounge with regards to political figures, and you'll be fine!

EDIT: By the way, I did not alert on you. I prefer to let things stay.
