(D-Countrywide)!!  Hahahahaha.....brilliant!!

Lane,

I see no difference between the parties.  None.

If Dodd is guilty, it is guilty of doing what politicians do.  That is all, IMO.

I believe every polition in involved in corruption should do time in state prison Democrat or Republican No Club Fed either

I'm so fed up with the political process I'm sure the staff could do a better job than the elected officials.

Tchaka - I can't take credit.  I'm pretty sure I saw it while i was Googling...

Mike - I don't see much difference in the way the members of the parties view us... cash cows.  But, much of the media seems to view different parties in a different light.

Hugh - Agreed. 

Terry - The staffs are scary.  So many of them are just flat out ignorant about the stuff they are advising their MOCs (Members of Congress) on.

Chris Dodd has a little wiatress sandwich a few years back also. His name keeps coming up at the wrong time.

Christopher Dodd did endorsed Obama as the candidate for change, didn't he?

Congratulations this post is now featured in Silent Majority of Active Rain.

Obama will change a lot for the worst.

It's somewhat amazing in the response by the democratic party. Like what's the big deal, we got a little extra under the table, so what we do it all the time, just ask Al Gore he came upon his 100 million since leaving office. Special interest groups are feeding these guys billions, and they claim ignorance. What does that say about the people who vote for them?

Democrooks always get a pass!  They are exempt from all the laws!  They will raise taxes on the working class they call the rich, and at the same time create tax loop holes for themsleves.  Al Gore has just created a new company a major shareholder that will be able to trade pollution credits if it had passed!

Algore is a joke. Of course it is the ones who supposedly hate big business who get the payoffs.

Kevin - A Republican doing that would be looking for work...

Nicholas - Yes... and people forget that bad to worse is also a change. 

Kevin - I think so.

Larry - Both sides play that game.  My point is that they all don't get called out the same way...

Jim - He didn't just create it... he started it just before doing the movie that was designed to promote what he was doing...

Kevin - Legalized protection money.

It is discouraging to send people to Washington only to find our country in such a mess.  Here is a perfect example of greediness.

Diane - While I have distate for the word greed because it is difficult to define... I think that we send people there and they develop a lust for power.
