35. Pointing out GOP hypocrisy does not help them.

Pointing out that they spent 5 years chasing down Whitwater criminality and found none, so they have no grounds to complain about a 2 year investigation that has produced over 30 guilty pleas/convictions.

The GOP don't own language. We have a right to and should use the same language they falsely used against us. We're telling the truth and they were lying.

The alternative is silence regarding GOP crimes. And that does indeed help the GOP.
