It is not surprising that the Dems are so corrupt. They always do the opposite of what they say. They say they are the first to protect our Constitutional Rights, but they are taking them away, such the First Amendment with the "Fairness Doctrine" or the Second Amendment with excessive gun laws. They say they are going to be transparent and open, but they keep the "Spendulous" Bill behind closed doors and write it in the dark of night. Then, no one can read it.

Then, of course, they say that the Republicans are corrupt and they are not. But, Rangle, Dodd, Franks, Murtha, Daschle, Blagojevich, Burris, Clinton, Geithner, Emmanuel, and the list goes on and on are all corrupt in some manner. Most them are still in office, even though they should not be. HYPOCRITES!

The words "ethical" and "Congress" do not belong in the same sentence.

A successful politician in this country is corrupt until proven otherwise, irrespective of political affiliation. I am really getting tired of this hackneyed argument.

One of Pelosi's first acts was to push through the minimum wage hike. However, workers in American Samoa were exempted. You see, many American Samoans are employed in the tuna industry. The corporate HQ of StarKist Tuna is located in San Francisco CA, the congressional district represented by... Nancy Pelosi.

You do the math.

Every politician makes the same hypocritical claim, i remember when Dubya said this. "The administration I'll bring is a group of men and women who are focused on what's best for America, honest men and women, decent men and women, women who will see service to our country as a great privilege and who will not stain the house."

Then obviously it all went to crap, i mean the list is endless with all the GOP corruption but the star of the show has to be Tom Delay, the first congressional leader ever to be indicted on criminal charges. Good old Tom put one huge stain on the house, ethics went out the window and in came conspiracy and money laundering. This made Dubya look like any other politician. A hypocrite!

Palinisevil - "the first congressional leader ever to be indicted on criminal charges. Good old Tom put one huge stain on the house, ethics went out the window and in came conspiracy and money laundering."

So the Delay indictment was the catalyst that created mountains of "conspiracy and money laundering" in Congress?

Silly me, my memory must be faulty, I remember dozens of cases (in both Partys) of the same type behavior that predates Delay's problems.

Actually no it isn't faulty, but yours is due to extreme partisan reasons.

If you have such a great need to spin something you should try spinning away why his case has languished in the courts since Sept 2005?

Can you spell the case is, H O R S E S H I T?

Can you spell, J A C K A B R A M O F F?

Silly me, my memory must be faulty, i remember that two, yes TWO, of Delay's aides pleaded guilty and were convicted of conspiracy charges and illegally acting on Abramoff's behalf. Jack Abramoff made his plea bargain and it must have been pure coincidence that DeLay abandoned his efforts to return to his position as House Majority Leader just three days later.

Actually no it isn't faulty, but yours is due to extreme partisan reasons. But only one of us will ever admit to being partisan. :)

I didn't once say that corruption started with DeLay or will end with Delay, you made that straw man all by yourself. All i was pointing out was the hypocrisy on this extremely partisan far right blog of saying Pelosi was unethical all the while trying sweep DeLay under the rug.

When Pelosi's indicted on criminal charges, get back to me.
