Goes for both sides of the aisle, August - let's be fair. I'm not saying the Dems aren't crooked - far from it - but they're not exclusive to it, either.

Truth is, the reason crooks in both major parties don't make headlines like this one is that corruption among them is old hat.

Tea party makes headlines because it's new, it espouses change (which is always uncomfortable), and it's an easy target for the majority media to take on.
