Dear (new) Congress!!!

At this point, I think I would actually at least respect that since it's the truth......


Did that make sense?

I agree! And yes it did make sense.


Lizbud, I also was referring to the higher ups, not usually the locals. Often they actually ARE honest and hard working and want what's best, they just get their hands tied by those others I'm referring to.

Do you mean that only Federal politicians are dishonest & untrustworthy?

[Vela]

No, I didn't mean that, what gives you that idea? Higher ups doesn't just refer to federal, I just feel there probably are SOME decent people politically involved in their cities etc., but the higher you go the worse it gets, and yes I do beleive that.

[Lady's Human]

It all depends on where you are. Buddy Cianci (a trustworthy local pol) anyone?

How about Billy Bulger?

Alan Hevesi?

There are corrupt idiots at every level. But who is fooling who? Alan Hevesi was re-elected comptroller in NY AFTER being indicted for fraud and abuse of his office.
