42. Since you asked, no, he had no intention of going to Russia. The US Government

took away his passport making it impossible for him to leave the airport which was just a stop over.

The program was started under Bush, lots of programs, The Patriot Act, the never ending WOT, spying on the American people, and apparently on all of our allies.

We threw them out because we wanted to end these policies which caused so much harm to the US and to other countries.

That meant removing all Bush Personnel in positions of power. That was the goal of all those who worked so hard to get rid of them.

But our leadership decided to be 'bi-partisan', not to prosecute War and Wall St criminals and to appoint back into positions of power the same Republicans the people threw out and/or leave them where they had already done so much damage.

Did any Democrat seriously think that Bush Loyalists left in or appointed to these positions would NOT try to 'blame' a Dem if they got caught, or undermine a Dem given the chance?

Your anger is misdirected. The worst decision made by Dems over the past five years was to assume that they could trust Republicans.

NOW maybe we can rid of Alexander, of Clapper and start prosecuting Bush loyalists and direct the blame where it belongs, although by associating with them for so long, Dems ARE now tainted by their illegal and corrupt schemes, maybe even will, sadly, end up being blamed for them.

Progressives were right once again but were told how naive they were, how they 'hate america' etc etc.

The whole corrupt Bush regime should have been removed and prosecuted where needed back in 2009 and we would not have this mess today.
