Neither Hillary Clinton nor Rudy Giuliani is an innocent entrant into politics. Both are die-hard veterans, with Clinton's having been a central player in the spin-cycling, rumor-floating, telegenic Clinton White House and Giuliani on the defense for his conniving measures against pedestrians and taxi drivers and his lackadaisical response to rising police brutality. And they are certainly not immune from the dirty work involved in campaigning. Clinton went on talk shows to talk about...

Soon after, the Browns had discovered the spewings on Harris' website, geysers of hate like the one saying Harris longed to "blow up and shoot everything I can. Feel no remorse, no sense of shame...I don't care if I live or die in the shootout, all I want to do is kill and injure as many of you [expletive] as I can, especially a few people.
