Looks like business as usual … which was what Obama and the Democrats supposedly ran against.

Do you honestly mean to tell me that you thought the Obamanation would keep any campaign promise? SHEESH!

Culture of Corruption update
Democrats demonized lobbyists for the last two years on the
presidential campaign trail, and won the 2006 midterms by criticizing
the “culture of corruption” in the GOP-run Congress. My, how times
have……

I’m scared for my family, I’m scared for my country.

Who isn’t? Stock up on canned goods and ammo, and reinforce the door to the basement. It may come to that.

Thank God it looks like Corzine is going to get trounced, pimp-slapped and beaten like a rented mule in the upcoming gubernatorial election in the fall. (snicker)

If any of you here have any money with Goldman Sachs, I’d advise you to withdraw it immediately and invest it with a less political, less corrupt firm.

The GOP will not attack this since they like to enjoy the same perks.

Duh? Huh? What are we doing now? Is this thread not critical of this practice? Are we not the GOP?

Okay, anyone on this thread not in the GOP raise your hand.

Oh, wait, you mean the leadership of the GOP? The RINOs we’re trying to ‘lose’ to the democrats? Well there is always hope.

Hand raised. I am not a registered Republican. They’re not conservative enough for me to register as one.

That’s $14 TRILLIAN!

Does anyone seriously believe Congressman are selling their souls just for the power and their low 6 digit salaries?

Liars to go hell.

Liars burn in hell.

Liars suffer in hell.

I see a long dismal future for the whole of the left.

And yes. I am being partisan, so don’t bother to point that out.

We are now in a living hell.
God help us all.

The thing is, a vote for Obama was a vote for more of the same.

Congress has been in Democrat hands since 2006.
The Democrats own this economy and the culture of corruption. Too bad the public couldn’t get their minds around this simple fact before we elected the Corrupter-in-Chief.

Well, the media did its job well. I am still shocked to see the exit interviews with Obama voters where they believed that the Reps controlled congress from 2006-8 and that Palin said the stupid stuff Obama and Biden actually said during the campaign.

They are banking on the fact that people are not paying attention, and they aren’t. Pun intended.

I’m sure all those independent, hardnosed, nonpartisan members of the journalistic elite will be grilling Obama and co on this relentlessly.

Right?

Barney Frank, one of the two Congesstitutes to kick over the American economy, puts one of his boy-friends at Goldman-Sachs.

Sodom-on-the-Potomac is becoming reality faster than Barney can say ‘I’ll have another tea bag.’

Change you can believe in,just dont question our numbers,or my staff,and make sure you mean ol repubs pay my taxes on time.

“Nah. No “culture of corruption” here. Looks like business as usual … which was what Obama and the Democrats supposedly ran against.”

You would think someone would make a cleaver political commercial out of this……………

…………. and start running it day and night.

Liars burn in hell.

Liars suffer in hell.

I see a long dismal future for the whole of the left.

And yes. I am being partisan, so don’t bother to point that out.

Let him eat his waffles.
