Congressmen on both sides of the Aisle under ethics violation in Pelosi's most ethical Congress in History! This barely scratches the surface as to what is really going on so once again I will let you read the links that concern you and supply my synopsis at the end. We are at a crossroads in the life cycle of every society, it is up to our cat fighting underhanded Politicians which way we go. They do not seem to care!
Congressional Ethics Report Leaked, Reveals Names
Top 5 Corrupt Politicians of 2008
Rangel: Ethics talks unrelated to personal finance issues
House subcommittee created to investigate Rep. Maxine Waters
Ethics committee inquired about earmark in Rep. Mack's district
">Corrupt politicians will put an end to our republic
As we know, there have been many life forms and societies before us. They have all run their cycles and gone the way of the dinosaur or in the case of civilization, the way of the roman Empire and so will we unless our Politicians save us and not themselves! They are showing instead that they only care about their party's interests and are enriching themselves while they can.
You saw the corruption, perversion and downright treason routinely and underhandedly displayed under Bush while Our Republic was allowed to flounder. We were waiting for our shining light to save us from the dark tunnel Bush led us into. We needed someone to save the ship called America off the rocks because it was sinking. Obama can not do it himself and Republicans and many Politicians want him to fail, think only about themselves and their party, and continue to let our America fail.
At this point Congressman on both sides of the aisle are under investigation for ethics violations! I got a bad taste in my mouth after watching the shenanigans during the Bush era and sadly it has become the norm. Politicians are the most unethical animals on the planet. More than 30 are under investigation. You know the debilitating recent past with these underhanded scum. What ever happened to draining the swamp?
The Ethics committee is investigating 2 Democrats from California and half of a subcommittee is under investigation. Of course, we would not have known any of this but it was accidently posted on line. Duh! We at least have a window into the underhanded underworld of our illicit politicians. Pelosi said this would be the most ethical Congress in History What does that tell you?
I guess it is good news they are even being investigated but look at the defense committee! Look at the Defense contractors! There are millions in kickbacks, payoffs, ear marks and questionable contributions or bribes. Hell not our Congress the cleanest ever! Again I ask what does that tell you? The most disturbing part of this is Pelosi promised an open honest ethical Congress, the best in History!
After Bush's mis Government we were ready for change. Besides having an honest educated President who knows the English language and can actually talk nothing much has changed. This ethics probe of done comprehensively will lead to much more and bigger scandal. There are numerous members who deserve a closer look and are guilty of something. I am sorry but being a politician today equates to "what can I get for myself?
I am sorry but after watching the immorality displayed by both party's like you I was disenchanted. Perverts, molesters, gangsters, on the take, on and on and on. This is our society in part but it seems to be our Politicians in large. I realized these are people taking what they can while they can. You see it all the time if you watch the history of the fall of the Roman Empire. It is part of the degradation of every society. We can turn this around but our Politicians have to want to save it and not them selves. They better wake up, they all have children parents and family. We are at the crossroads!
