Some comments demand response in El Sellers’ latest Letter to the Editor, run June 20, “LAWFARE: THE LAST REFUGE OF LIBERALS.”
Explaining, Sellers offers: “the term (“lawfare”) as currently used, explains using legal statutes as political weapons against an opponent.” This is true, in that BOTH sides will make accusations of lawbreaking against the other political side. These LEGAL charges, true or not, may indeed be intended to harm the opponent politically. Think: “Hunter Biden’s Laptop.”
If TRUE, of course, these charges are meant to ENFORCE OUR LAWS. Politicians are not immune from laws, and political corruption is as old as politics. Citizens SHOULD be skeptical of politicians; temptations are great.
