But this is a big part of the problem now in that the people we are given to "elect" no longer have any real relationship to the people they represent.
To be a politician these days you have to have millions in the bank, have the backing of major companies, had a professional career as a lawyer, doctor, financier or politician now seriously what percentage of the community do they truely represent and how many of those "career's" actually rate on a list of the respected and trusted?
Basically you have to go back to 1960s and before to find a time when the majority actually respected the profession and that was because it was a time when money mattered less than a persons reputation.
Ahhh... Good Ol' America.
What has happened to patriotism?
Not sure sure about hanging politicians, I am not sure it is an offense to be a self serving liar but I am almost convinced that whats needed is a reduction in the power of political parties, it has reached a point (here at least) where politicians have more allegiance to the party than to the constituents that elected them.
One thing I have always been interested in was a theory that rather than elect a government voters elect people to specific positions ie you may want a person from party x to be head of finances but a person from party y to be head of defense and someone from party z to be the nations head, it could lead to some very interesting forms of governance of course it may also create a giant mess.
Not being completely honset got President Clinton Impeached, and saying things which are not completely true in time of war, which in turn cause harm to the United States Military, is against the Law under Title 18 Part I Chapter 115 in § 2388 dealing with Activities affecting armed forces during war, which is what I would use to clean house, seeing how Taxes pay for the US Military, and stealing from the Government, or other illegal activites, and saying one did not steal or such would cause more Tax Dollars to be spent, causes the Military to suffer.
Since the United States is not in a declared war and hasn't been since the end of WWII, how would you suggest prosecuting someone under laws covering wartime offenses.
President Clinton was not charged with high crimes and misdemeanors, he was impeached for lying to a Federal Judge while under oath. Being the CIC of the US armed forces, he was charged with using the military as he deems necessary against all enemies, both foreign and domestic. The President sets and manages foreign policy, not Congress.
Taxes are used for all US Government expenditures, from Federal salaries to pork projects in Counties and States of Representatives and Senators. Distinguishing where taxes are wasted or where they are necessary is a noble effort but, by now, is impossible.
Donald Trump is also mistaken, as this is not a Freedom of Speech issue, but rather a Patriotic issue, and I doubt the Court looks at Trump as a Patriotic anything.
Trust me, I know Donald Trump on a personal level, the only loyalty he has is to Donald Trump.
I have no idea what you are Posting about with regard to President Clinton. And as per Title 50 United States Code, War and National Defense, in Chapter 33 which deals with the War Powers Act, in the absense of a Declearation of War, there needs to be 1. specific statutory authorization, or 2. a national emergency created by attack upon the United States, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces. If you truly believe the US Congress to be without power in the United States of America, sit back, and watch what is going to happen to the President.
"Not being completely honset got President Clinton Impeached, and saying things which are not completely true in time of war, which in turn cause harm to the United States Military,"
is against the Law under Title 18 Part I Chapter 115 in § 2388 dealing with Activities affecting armed forces during war, which is what I would use to clean house, seeing how Taxes pay for the US Military, and stealing from the Government, or other illegal activites, and saying one did not steal or such would cause more Tax Dollars to be spent, causes the Military to suffer.

Then just what did you mean when you stated the above? It sure sounds like you were inferring President Clinton was saying something in time of war that endangered the military. Your words, not mine.
I'm not very clear on this part of your post either. Why and how would you clean house again.
I am not sure it is an offense to be a self serving liar
It may have read better if I would have started a new sentence before Posting "and saying things which are not completely true in time of war, which in turn cause harm to the United States Military, is against the Law under Title 18 Part I Chapter 115 in § 2388 dealing with Activities affecting armed forces during war."Not being completely honset got President Clinton Impeached
And the cure being to enforce laws already on the books, and imprison those, reserving execution for the worst offenders, in Government who break the Law.
Making it so the Rich would not wish to risk being in the Job, or would not want the job very long, along the same lines as the Rich not wishing to risk their lives in the US Military, so more common folk have to make up the Ranks.
If 50 or 100 House Members and a dozen or so US Senators were hung like Saddam, after a fair Trial of course, I believe the Federal Government in the US would straighten right up for a few years.

You're delusional and by the way you must prove he lied which no one really can because well the whole freaking world thought the same way....
Let's not also forget we knew WMD where there because well we sold them to Saddam awhile back....Now the question is where did they ago????
I really think people need to find better things to occupy their time I mean do they really have so little to do that they can make a big deal out of a flag????
Seriously talk about wasted time on silly issues that effect nothing more then the PR of whoever is involved...
Sigma Six says WASTE
:read: If you thought Donald Trump getting fined for flying an American flag that violates city is a case of political correctness gone wrong, try this one.
It might also be noted that The Big Day Out concert is on the day befor Australia Day, when we are reminded of what it is to be an Australian
Don't like the flag? Move to a different country.
I'm delusional? Would that make you a Medical Doctor out of the same mold as Bill Frist? Or are you a Lawyer now... I'd like to point out that the finding of "Truth" or "Guilt or Innocence" is what a Trial is for.
Don't like the flag? Move to a different country.
I support the above without exception.
This also applies to the "arty crafty's" who think they have a "better" design, or that one's flag should be changed for whatever reason.
