Rats jumping ship?  Predators caught with their pants down? Boys just being boys? Or just slime bags taking advantage of their power, position, and standing in society. You choose. Whatever your choice the bottom line is that these are slimy people that DO NOT deserve to take a six-figure pension for the rest of their lives on YOUR TAX DOLLARS! But this is just the tip of the iceberg. Others are also in the wings. Check them out here.     

 

Whatever happened to honor and integrity? Was there ever these attributes in a politician? Maybe. Maybe not. But this country was founded by men of great wisdom and foresight and they were politicians. Remember what Abraham Lincoln said, "You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time". 

Honest Abe was a great leader, IMHO, but he was a man, therefore, he had his flaws. We all have them. Some more than others. Abe suffered from depression from time to time. History does not show that he abused his power. But then who knows. I am sure he was not a saint. I for one can not believe that there was never a time that he did not succumb to the advances of a woman, women, that was seeking a favor of some sort. Afterall, since the beginning, there has always been the temptation of the apple. The difference is they made, maybe, the advances. If that should happen, like Eve did, it's a totally different story than what is playing out now.    

 

Women are accusing men of groping them and overall simply disrespecting them. A few have said that they were forced into sex. I think that's called rape! What a horrible crime. To satisfy yourself at the unwanted expense of another. However, there are monsters among us. The worst ones are those that have no comprehension of others pain. Wait, we are talking about politicians, RIGHT? 

 

There are many accusers that are coming out of the woodwork. They need to be vetted. Is their story truthful? Can it be validated? If not, why not. Do the accused have a Hillary Clinton type behind them to shame and embarrass the accusers? Did he really grab that ass or are they to be shoveled under as was Bill Clinton's accusers? Oh Bill, how you must despise the memories that are now abundant again. 

 

As the allegations continue to take no prisoners and many enjoy their piping hot bowl of schadenfreude I can not help but think of the old phrase 'when it rains it pours'. In this case it is pouring out careers and decimating lives. Albeit justifiably so.
