We teach our children to look both ways when crossing the street. This seems an anodyne policy. Yet, our political leaders, at least on the Democratic side, consistently look only one way before crossing the proverbial street.
The Biden administration has just uncovered abuse of power by the tRumpies and is now faced with a dilemma. Should the DOJ follow the evidence even if it means prosecuting high officials of a previous administration or should they fall back on the "we are looking forward" excuse made popular by the Obama administration?
Looking backward and holding the appropriate individuals accountable for their actions would seem to be a no-brainer. Failure to look both ways in this case could turn our democracy into roadkill.
