If we can "cleanse" the Dems of Franken, perhaps we should also "cleanse" the Dems of the cynical politicians who can't distinguish between Vaudeville and real villainy, and who abandoned our Constitutional right to fair trails (or fair ethics investigations). We go on and on about the Trumpians trampling over democratic institutions, why not question our own stampedes?

The principles of the Democrats are strong. But we shouldn't cease to be critical of Democrats who abandon peace, equal economic opportunity, justice and due process.
