Atleast Bubba was entertaining, chasing all those chicks.

They are all corrupt. Politician equals corruption and we all are drinking oily Kool-Aide. Stop the useless bickering over who's team is number one because they're all number two.

USA's corruption is bi-partisan.

It is about the only thing the Republicans and Democrats can agree upon it seems.

I wonder if there has ever been an elected government with political parties that was not filled with corruption?

Maybe there is no escaping it?

That's a good question. I guess it's one thing to have one rotten egg. (nixon?), but that whole city is corrupt from stem to stern. I suppose a third party would be nice, but it seems like that just guarantees one party rule, because it splits the opposing party. (see Perot, Nader) Any whoo, I think this trial will expose what absolute one party rule gives us. IMO, some of the principles behind the Constitution were to prevent absolute rule by one group.

Agree about that one. I just don't like finger pointing. Pot calling the kettle and what not.

You didn't seem to have a problem doing just that in the Reagan thread. Now that the subject is a Democrat suddenly you've developed an aversion to finger pointing?
