So, what are we waiting for? [View all]

Why the delay?

Without naming names, it's looking more and more to me that "no man is above the law" is current b.s. Looking more and more to me that "equal justice under the law" is current b.s.

It's a sure thing... if I was found with slam dunk evidence of a crime the authorities-that-be wouldn't wait to charge me pending investigation of even more crimes. I'd be indicted already, and those other investigations would proceed, anyway.

If I was found with slam dunk evidence of a crime those authorities wouldn't wait pending some future political event. I'd be indicted already.

Justice delayed is propagation of unequal justice, period. We are not being justly served.
