Nonsense.

If you want to look at corruption, take a look at what happened when Jack Quinn, President Clinton's former White House counsel, took Marc Rich as a client. Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak, the Anti-Defamation League and, ahem, Democratic fundraiser Denise Rich submitted letters through Quinn to Clinton, requesting a pardon. Denise Rich contributed about $400,000 to the Clinton presidential library. She gave over $1 million to Democratic campaigns in the Clinton era and at least $70,000 to Hillary Clinton's U.S. Senate race as well as $10,000 to the President's legal defense fund.

Guess who received a pardon in the last days of the Clinton Administration? Marc Rich, that’s who. Now that’s corruption. This? Poo! Doesn't even show up as a blip on the radar.
