You completely missed the point I was making. I'm not talking Republican or Dem. crooks, I'm talking about the ever-growing crowd of crooks SURROUNDING them. There are a multitude of crooks drawn to both sides, but the Dems. just seem to keep attracting more and more of them. From protests turned violent to eco-nut attacks to campaign finance scandals beyond counting to casual associations with known criminals to the Chicago political machine. The left just seems to draw the criminal element in like nobody's business.

IMO, it has a lot to with a lack of respect for rule of law. When relative morality becomes the order of the day, rule of law is thrown out. Liberals tend to be strongly attracted to relative morality and so are criminals. They both use it to explain away illegal/unethical/immoral acts. Conservative tend more towards a rule of law mindset. They approach things from a legalistic, black and white mindset that criminals tend to avoid.
