20. Nobody cares what BelligerentandStupid "the radical centrist" has to say?

A "radical centrist"? Sounds like a dangerous social disease to me and probably communicable among the dim.

I don't think public servants should act as their own gatekeeper and holder of their work and I don't give a damn who thinks it is stupid, seemingly a universe made of of shifty Republicans until this hit. I don't recall Democrats opposing measures to restrict such handling or mocking the concept as meaningless.

What kind of fool thinks this is less substantive than Vince Foster murder accusations and BENGAZI! (a "scandal" that no one could even remotely articulate meaning it is by default even more stupid than a fake murder)?

Nothing has to be illegal to be inappropriate, unwise, and shady looking and if it happened today it would be illegal so isn't exactly wonderful and isn't unreasonable to frown upon the situation even if it isn't about going to jail.
