It’s All About Control

In his April 9 Hits & Misses column “Indicting DeChristopher,” Ted McDonough wrote, “What the Obama administration hopes to accomplish by now bringing down the hammer on monkey-wrench boy … is hard to fathom.”

The answer is clear! People go into politics to control others. While Obama is glad Tim DeChristopher screwed up Bush’s illegal oil leases, Obama does not want people breaking the rules. If DeChristopher gets away with it, others will try also. Those in power—be they Republican, Democrat, or anything else—need the rules to keep the power.

Sorry, Tim!
