    So 75% of the Man's money at least goes to the repugs, including the House majority, the whip, the majority leader (indicted), and what is the big story for TMM? The Senate minority leader.... cause he is a democrat...

    Off course, makes sense....wait, NO.
    So, we should just ignore Democrat corruption? Just because Dems did not receive as much money as the Repubs did, does not mean that it doesn't count.

No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.'"

      Can't we just agree that EVERYONE in government is a little corrupt, and only go after the ones that are corrupt in the millions Otherwise we're just rewarding people who are better at hiding corruption than others

        Why not punish everyone who breaks corruption laws?

          snoopy: I'd say Repukes are generally worse... although there are certainly Dems that are awful

          diplo: we should punish them all

          punishment for corruption should be death
          To us, it is the BEAST.

            Do you have some evidence to back that up or are you making a partisan statement?

              I'm guessing partisan, but then I don't know all of the cases that have come up and so can't given a proper split of corruptability between the two parties. At least our politicians only booze....

                If we punished everyone in our government that is corrupt, we'd be left without anyone to run our country, and fall into a state of anarchy.

                  Which party is worse depends on which party has been in control a few years.

                  On the Senate side, Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.), now the Senate minority leader, also wrote Ms. Norton in opposition to the casino. The letter was dated March 5, 2002. On March 6, 2002, one of Mr. Abramoff's tribal clients wrote a $5,000 check to Mr. Reid's Searchlight Leadership Fund. "There is absolutely no connection between the letter and the fundraising," said Mr. Reid's spokesman, Jim Manley. Another coincidence! Mr. Reid's Abramoff-related total: $66,000 between 2001 and 2004.
