Thats almost as good as Rangle's claims he is innocent because no one told him he was breaking the law.

I don't know man, Rangle's statements prove he deserves special honors for his actions. I mean he was the chairman of the House Ways and Means committee - the committee responsible for Tax Legislation.

I couldn't see myself voting for her, other than a desire to see peoples' heads explode if she won.


Sure, and I don't have a problem with that. Bear in mind, I have no problem with her as a person, nor with her as a political figurehead. Where I get nervous is with her as a functional leader (executive).

Yes, that's how she earns her living, but that IS attention-whoring.

To me, "attention-whoring" is doing things in order to garner attention - everything else is ancillary. It's kind of hard making money giving speeches if you don't go anywhere, or talk to anyone. If writing books is "attention-whoring"...

Eh, I guess we'll just have to disagree on this too.
