Well, they go into office to serve their community. All they do is serve themselves. Forget the white collar prisons. Send them where Bubba lives behind bars. Those that are suppose to protect those they serve. Should get the largest sentence possible. At least a crackhead on the corner isn't pretending to be something he's not.

Ron,
What an a-hole. I only hope justice is swift and sure. Besides serving as an example to other politicians that think they are above the law, swiftness will let our hired authorities pay attention to the next one in line. 
If Ryan got 6 years, this turkey should get 12. So the next guy knows 24 isn't out of the question. Another strike and you're doubled. 
Fingers in both union and corporate pie. Tsk, tsk. 
Al Capone may be gone but his Chicago heritage lives on.

Wes,
Now I wonder what the Governor of New York will do since he may have to appoint a replacement for Hillery. I am not sure abut that as I don't know how they do it back there. But this guy really deserves to be kicked out of the country. As for being surprised, no I am not surprised by anything a politician does any more.

And Palin possibly for Ted Stevens. Now there's a guy who got railroaded. I wish all of them, were only as dastardly as Ted. Actually I feel sorry for anybody who gets railroaded because I know the pain. 
Steve,
Vulcher , vulture what the heck. You must feel you owe Perry one in the nitpick dept.

I thought he may have meant vulture, but it didn't really seem to make a lot of sense either - weasel maybe...
Besides, vulcher didn't look like a typo for vulture - I guess his oldtimers disease must be kicking in.

Joe,
The Bush legacy will be with us for a loooong time. We have a lot more problems in this country now than when Bush took office, and many of the root causes of those problems are owned by the GOP congress or Bush himself.
Obama has a dubious background because of some of his past associations, but he is innocent until proven guilty (or at least indicted...).

CNN was on in the break room as usual while I was eating lunch. He was holding a press conference and said that all the wiretap and other evidence reminded him of Nixon and Watergate. My first thought was that Nixon was conducting acts that were criminal, so are you saying you are guilty?

Well, we've managed to survive 8 years (almost) of the most incompetent leadership ever. He is going to have to try real hard to do worse than Bush.

No you haven't-you survived 4 years of the most incompetent president ever-1976 to 1980.

I am not a political animal, and as such don't understand this at all.

The way I understand it is this, Obama currently holds the seat (elected) once he takes office as President, he will vacate that seat and according to Ill law, the governor appoints someone to that seat until the next election to fill the slot for the remainder of the term. The next election the appointed person would have to run to keep the seat. The governor, was wanting people to pay him for the appointment. Not money going to the state either, to his personal bank account.
