Magna Carta Day is still four and a half months away, but it might not be too early to start shopping for a pint of celebratory ale to avoid the rush. Just kidding about the rush. But events of the day could easily drive a person to drink.
The more we learn about Hillary Clinton's emails the more frightening it becomes. Apparently, the highly secret information put into her easily hacked private system were too damaging to national security to release under any circumstances. What ever it was, our enemies have long since purloined it, digested it, and adapted their own strategic plans accordingly.
The question on many of our minds now is whether the Department of Justice will do anything to punish Hillary Clinton. Or is she really too big to jail? This brings us to the Magna Carta.
Way back in the year 1215 a bunch of British barons revolted against King John. The outcome was the signing of the Magna Carta on June 15 of that year. And the enduring principle to emerge from that historic document was that no one was above the law. That principle has been carried forth to most democracies, and especially the United States.
But this time is different. If Hillary Clinton really is too big to jail, then it might be time for another Magna Carta event.
