'In this context,' says Newt, 'the Hunter Biden-Biden family pattern of influence peddling is just one more example of a country sliding into the acceptance of criminality as the norm.' Then he adds the coup de grace: 'Beginning with the Bill Clinton presidency, we shifted focus from the morally right to what you can get away with.' Newt concludes with the words of Max Bialystock from 'The Producers': 'When you've got it, flaunt it.' Next, he considers the big leagues in corruption. Whereupon Newt turns to 'petty theft on a grand scale (which) has become a way of life for tens of thousands (maybe hundreds of thousands) of people.'

We have 50 states plus territories within the union. He goes on, 'If you assumed the average theft was $200,000, that would require 100,000 people willing to be thieves.' That is a large number of thieves running loose in one state. In California alone, $20 billon was recently stolen from the state's unemployment compensation program. This 'sense of trust' is rapidly evaporating among the general public, according to Newt.

Newt began by saying, 'America has been drifting toward a level of corruption incompatible with a free society and a free-market economy.' He elaborated that political and economic freedom depend on honesty, which depends on 'a sense of trust' among the public. He covered a lot of malfeasance in but a few sentences. It is about the spreading corruption afflicting America. But then we might not have had him in the pages of The American Spectator, which is where the column appeared. Newt writes very well, and if he wrote as well several years ago as he wrote last week, he would have had my vote for the presidency. Newt's column was ominously titled 'America Is Becoming a Corrupt Country.' Last week, he wrote a column that was at the top of the chop, as H.L. One who can, both read and write books, is Newt Gingrich, and he also writes newspaper columns, which I commend to you.

Today we have few politicians who can even read a book. Sorensen was one of his speechwriters, of course.

He actually won the Pulitzer Prize for his book 'Profiles in Courage,' though Ted Sorensen wrote the book. Kennedy was supposed to be a great writer. WASHINGTON - Politicians are rarely competent writers.
