This swamp is too big and too far gone to be drained by electing “the
other guys.” There are no other guys; they are all the same. I’m not
sure what the answer is, but the wise words of Justice Brandies should
have served as a warning and ultimately may become prophetic:
“In a government of laws, the existence of the government
will be imperiled if it fails to observe the law scrupulously. Our
government is the potent, the omnipotent teacher. For good or ill, it
teaches the whole people by its example. If government becomes a
lawbreaker it breeds contempt for law: it invites every man to become a
law unto himself. It invites anarchy.”
Scary times with even more thrills ahead I am afraid.
