My point was that there are just as many Democrat crooks as there are Republican crooks. The makers of the video blame Republicans for the success of Wal-Mart, but fail to mention that Hillary Clinton was on their board or that they supported Bill Clinton. They lament Republican corruption, but fail to mention that Duke Cunningham was forced by the Republican leadership to resign his seat when it was discovered that he was taking bribes and now resides at a federal prison. Chris Dodd is likely going to get away with what amounts to the same thing that Cunningham did, largely because most of the press is ignoring the story. The video even insinuates that Republicans are responsible for AIDS (hello Rev. Wright) and breast cancer. "They're just gays and women." I guess that's why spending for research on AIDS and breast cancer dwarfs anything that's spent on finding a cure for prostate cancer or diabetes.

The makers of the video probably intended for it to be funny. The problem is that there are a lot of idiots out there who actually believe the bullshit they are spouting, and this video serves to reinforce their stupidity.

I know. That was pretty much my point too. I saw things in the video that sounded more like what a democrat would do, and I also saw things in it that really do fit republicans, such as kissing butt to the drug companies.

I would like to discuss a little thing called the ENRON LOOPHOLE. This loophole is loved by John McBush and his handlers. This loophole is the reason why speculators can corner the market in oil and set whatever price they want. Lets see if our resident neocon can defend his parties choice of a candidate.

Wonder how many of his cronies got rich on it, too.

The whole scheme sounds a lot like the method in which Hillary made a large amount of money in a very short time in the cattle futures market. Hmmm....

Yes but the price of beef is not breaking us poor and middle class americans. You maybe are still ok money wise but us common folk are suffering.

And of course you know that Hillary is NOT the candidate
