Beanbag

I think it was the former and deceased Congressman from Massachusetts, Tip O'Neill, who famously said "Politics ain't beanbag." Now Democrat Senator Robert Menendez of New Jersey is relearning this same lesson as he is apparently going to be indicted on criminal corruption charges as one of the last acts by our outgoing Attorney General, Eric Holder ... see: Reuters Story.

This clearly is a bit of political payback ... not that Senator Menedez is above reproach. He clearly is about as slimy as any Democrat politician (and a few Republicans) ... including his three possible junkets to the Dominican Republic to enjoy some hanky-panky with underage prostitutes ... all on the cuff of his friend and possible Medicare overcharger, Dr. Salomon Melgen ... see: Irony of Ironies...

However, Cuban-American Menendez's biggest mistake was vocally opposing the Obama administration on its Cuban and Iran policies. So Menedez is the one Democrat who is singled out for punishment ... not Charles Rangel, not Nancy Pelosi, not Al Sharpton, not Harry Reid, not Lois Lerner, not Hillary Clinton, etc. The only conclusion one can draw from this Menendez indictment ... it's OK today to be a reprobate as long as you toe the Democrat party line.

I guess we all knew this ... it is just depressing to see it unfold once again.
