A Law...

A Law for the Clintons, Another for Us  by Bill Wilson    

 

Attorney General Loretta Lynch, fresh off a private meeting with former President Bill Clinton on an airport tarmac, has closed the case against Hillary Clinton with no criminal charges. The concept of rule by law was undermined by true Democracy.

Democracy is a system governed by the majority or by the mighty rather than a system of set laws, like a Republic. The privileged prevailed. FBI Director James Comey pronounced his own law when he said that "our judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case."

Here we have une-lected political appointees admitting there are legal violations, but making an independent determination to close the case rather than let the legal system play out.

The Founding Fathers chose a Constitutional Republic as the governmental system because they wanted the rule of law in our nation. They wanted one law for all so that the rich, the mighty, the despot would not be able to escape justice; so that the poor, the weak, the lessor in society would have the same justice as all citizens.

A democracy opens the door for the very chicanery we have seen with the Clinton case-two sets of law--One for the Clinton's and one for everybody else. The current Administration, as documented by Bloomberg, has prosecuted a record number of people for playing loose with classified information. Not Hillary Clinton. Not even a trial, just an administrative dismissal of the case.

Cornell University Law School has posted on its website "18.U.S. Code & 793-Gathering, transmitting or losing defense information." This law enumerates the many ways that anyone who willingly shares defense related information or knowingly loses it "Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both."

This is just one such law that Hillary Clinton should have been brought up on trial. There are many, many more. But there are two sets of laws in this nation, especially highlighted by the "progressive" [sic Marxist Islamist] regime now in power-one for common folk like us who are harassed by the enforcer everyday, and one set for members of the exclusive public service echelon.

The Biblical principle behind the rule of law is God's way to hold society accountable and provide individual protections. Moses established a system of courts to hear the people's grievances and judge them according to God's laws, which does not change.

Democracy, in its purest form, allows the law to be a moving target, changing with the whims of the people or those in charge of the people. This is how we have arrived at such a spot in our justice system. The beauty of the American Republic was that people were not above the law.

As in this case where the FBI said Clinton did not intend to break the law, Numbers 15:29 says, "You shall have one law for him that sins through ignorance, both for the children of Israel and for the stranger that sojourns among them."

Thus, the saying, "ignorance of the law is no excuse."

Except for the Clintons.
