Buchanan on Capitol Hill

Buchanan is right, only it just isn’t Capitol Hill, but much of the media.

Night after night we are bombarded with sound bites of alleged wrongdoings by first one person and then another. And of course we all know that if the accusations are prefaced by the word “alleged” that takes the accuser off the hook with no responsibility for the accusation. The American people deserve better than to have to get their news in this “hit or miss” fashion.

If and when these “alleged” lawbreakers are brought to a fair trial and no clear evidence is produced of any wrongdoing--just what happens then? Oops! Sorry folks, but all those people we have been trashing by innuendo over the past few months are really not so bad after all. Sorry!
