the political establishment is not some 'shadowy' force. They operate in plain daylight and do what they want, in case you weren't paying attention for the last 30 years.

He certainly deserves the same punishment that crooked repubs like Gingrich, Cunningham, Vitter and Ensign got for ethics violations.

Just like a pinhead.
This isn't ethics you fool, this is about tax evasion, theft and misuse of hundreds of thousands of dollars.....and Duke did some jail time for his crimes....just as this pinhead Democrat.
Hes even worse than the pathetic crook he replaced in 1970....

Sure, bozo, that's why he was found guilty by the Ethics Panel. :palm:

I understand reading comprehension isn't your strong suit but you could have read the article before writing this ridiculous comment.

Of course dimwit....you don't expect the DOJ of a democratic administration to bring criminal charges do you(or the IRS)....?

They should...but I ain't holding my breath. Fuckin' Dims protect their own...how naive are you?

Hey, if you don't believe me? Believe your own President.

"Since I entered politics, I have chiefly had men's views confided to me privately. Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the Field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it."
Woodrow Wilson, The New Freedom (1913)
 
Might I add that they didn't complete their domination of America until the formation of the Federal Reserve.......

Which operates separate from the US government and is made up of foreign investors.

The house ethics committee isn't a criminal court and can't hand out jail sentences.

The punishment for bribery and tax trouble is somewhat different.

and here we have one of yurts NOT so brilliant moments. Or is it that you actually TRUST the government?

That's what drives me nuts about you libertarian types. You really are anarchist in drag. I mean it is our government and no one in their right mind trusts any human institution completely. There must be checks and balances but in general, yes, I do trust my government in much, if not most things. I think our Government is the best (or at least one of the best) governments in the world. Do I trust them completely and unequivocally? Is the Pope a Jew?

oh for crying out loud, get over yourself. you want to be a meek and docile little prole, that's your problem. I do not trust my government, period, and you're insane if you even trust them just a little bit.

let's also be very clear about something, so as not to confuse your narrow minded view, our FORM of government is the best, but that does NOT mean it functions the best, or honestly, unless WE THE PEOPLE continually question every fucking move they make, everything they way, and every idea they put out in public view.

Interesting how when someone doesn't agree with you they are sheep. I didn't exactly see you out in the streets protesting the Iraq war or was Waco far more important to you?
