12. When do we start seeing these felons being held accountable?
Sat Oct 27, 2012, 10:45 AM
Oct 2012

With all of this occurring throughout the country, why is this not being addressed immediately by our Justice Department? I don't want on-going hearings, after the elections are over. I am really, really old and I have never seen nor heard of this outright tampering with Federal elections in my lifetime.

We send individuals to jail for small things, such as small amounts of marijuana, kiting checks, etc., yet we totally allow major felons who totally steal our Democracy to walk free? I just don't understand and neither would my family who fought and died to protect these rights.
