Bill's Business

Corruption sketchIt must be a hoot, being a billionaire at 50. Maybe even better, being an ex-president who's buddies with the billionaire so he can quietly line his pockets in style. Billary has always been about corruption — as a number of people have pointed out the scandals didn't stop happening when Bill left office, they're just less frequently in the news. It's a refreshing reminder then to see how Bill sealed the deal for his bud in Kazakhstan, picked up several tens of millions of bucks for his services, and left bilateral U.S. human rights policy (such as it is) devastated in his wake. If Billary were elected this cycle it'd be fascinating, I must admit, watching Bill skirt the rules.

Yet so many Democrats love him! I can't say I'm feeling very enthusiastic about Democracy at the moment, but advocating any other form of government would be unethical. (How did Plato propose choosing his philosopher-king? That would be worth looking up.)
