Why the kid gloves on Hsu?

Nabbed: Fugitive campaign contributor Norman Hsu, in Grand Junction, Colo., taken into custody by FBI agents on a federal charge of unlawful flight to avoid prosecution. Hsu, who has funneled millions to Democrat party candidates across this land, will now have to attend his sentencing hearing on a 15-year-old felony theft conviction.

The entire Hsu episode is troubling and there are many unanswered questions, chief among them is "Where did he get all the money he has donated? What is its origination, and why?"

Until that question is answered, justice is not served.

Next big question: Why was he "out on bail" pending a bail hearing (at which time he promptly disappeared from California)? How could you NOT consider him a flight risk, since he just spent the last 15 years avoiding his sentencing?

Today's new question, as per The Associated Press story: A spokesman for the FBI said that "Once he is returned to state custody, the federal charges will be dismissed." Huh? Did he or did he not leave California without the court's permission? Since when are such things merely dismissed? What kind of political clout does Mr. Hsu have?

Stuff like this causes us to wonder if this country is salvageable.
