How ironic is it that today Illinois governor Rod Bull****ovich was arrested on corruption charges. How much longer will it be before Tony Rezko spills all the beans and drags Obama, Rhambo and others into this as well. It is just absurd, that Americans can vote people into office like this. Worst part is that they stay there for many years. While we here on the right have had our black sheep Ted Stevens, Tom Feeney, and others. It seems that you cannot go a day without hearing about some corruption on the left.
Charlie " I didn't know" Rangle and his financial misdealings. Not paying taxes on a rental property he owns off shore. Getting sweetheart deals for low income housing etc. Sad thing he is still in office and heads up the House finance commitee. Just who I want wtching our money. Then we have the congressman from Louisianna William " keep it cool" Jefferson who stashed the ill gotten money in his freezer figuring it would cool off. Don't forget Chris Dodd senator from Connecticut who got a sweetheart "special" mortgage from Countrywide before they went belly up. Then Barney " Elmer Fudd" Frank who had a sexual affair with a man from Fannie Mae. What kind of conflict of interest does this cause with Frank being on the House Banking Commitee. Can we say Hilliary Clinton and Whitewater? The list goes on.
My point is I can't stand when the left sits there and says how corrupt the right is and Bush messed things up etc. But then they run around and play their mob style buy your way in tactics. I remember Nancy Pelosi saying how she was going to clean up Capitol Hill. If that is the case she sure isn't doing much. Everything that has been done was done by outside agencies. Besides if she does act on her word, no one will be left from her party. They all will be in jail. The hypocracy is so sickening that I almost can't bear it.
Ms Pelosi a wiseman once said "those who live in glass houses, shouldn't throw stones." So before you continue on your tyrades in congress on the failed economic policies of George Bush, look at the failed economic policies of your own party. Seems that the only difference in the failings is all of your parties actions have been illegal and they got caught.
