While on your side of the aisle, they have helped themselves, and their rich cronies,(like Clinton did) with the deceptive lie that it will "trickle down" and it never does.

Ted Kennedy, for example, for all of his wealthy values, and perhaps some sleexe included, has spent a lifetime in public office helping those in need, literally walking the streets(or drowning in the Potomac) with the poor, and the needy....

As has mnost of the other democrats...but, of lcourse,Jayson, yopu would not know anything about that, and even if yu did, you would never admit it.

You have an awful lot to learn about the truth.

Do you require "documented proof"? Well here it is:

Peter Schweizer, author of Do As I Say (Not As I Do): Profiles in Liberal Hypocrisy (New York: Doubleday, 2005 -- ISBN: 0-385-51349-6), devoted an entire chapter (Chapter 4: Ted Kennedy: Environmental Rapist, Tax Cheat, and Oil Profiteer) to the shenanigans of the Kennedy clan, with specific attention paid to the Senatorial windbag of the sanctimonious American Left. Since there are so many examples from which to select, it is difficult to choose the most galling case of Kennedy-like arrogance. However, among the more egregious is the Kennedy clan’s successful evasion of inheritance taxes, an evasion that contradicts the Senator’s political posturing and rhetoric.

...That is your GOP.

They must have champagne blowing through their noses when they see news stories about their treason. They could give a sh-t, just like most decent Americans who are too busy paying bills and getting therapy.

The point is they are all prone to corruption in equal measure.

I agree that the present group is the least bashful and secretive of their shemes that we've seen in a long time, but Johnson was pretty bad in the 60's and Clinton was in bed with the health insurance co's and doctors and lawyers during his tenure. They just didn't flaunt it the way these guys do.

My biggest disappointment, again, is how the people fail to react to these evil bastids. I constantly hear the ground rumbling from our great ancestors rolling over in their graves, like Washington and Ike.
