slow progress.
though there is a sense of the scale of the challenge here.
which is something.

just compare to Whitewater and Lewinsky and all the clintonian "scandals" combined.
even if we were to allow the VRWC most expansive incrimination of the Bill Clinton administration, cheneyBu$hco dwarfs Clinton by many orders of magnitude.

Not to mention the dangerous level of threat to our constitutional democracy from cheneyBu$hco.

(we do NOT except the VRWC claims of scandals against Clinton.)
nevertheless, cheneyBu$hco have initiated an internal ROT of the entire federal government.

Now contrast the levels of your "Mainstream" media coverage of the respective administrations' scandals.


corruption
on
a
heretofore
unimaginable
scale.
