So, must I now remind you of the 50+ Republican scandals afoot?
A small sampling:
Enron
No bid contracts to cronies
Billions unaccounted for in Iraq
Lying about true Medicare costs while threatening to fire the actuary who wanted to tell Congress
Blackwater, big contributor, accountable to no one
Ameriquest and Countrywide (see "secrets of the housing crisis" here)
Lying about the Iraq intelligence (635 times as shown in a recent study)
Lying about the Iran intelligence
Sex scandals involving many Republicans...with boys and girls (no horses)
Tom Delay, Tom Delay, Tom Delay's associates
Outing an active CIA agent
Covering up that lie.
DOJ, now under investigation
this is too easy....like shooting babies in a barrel.
As they say "more available upon request".
One of my favs: Bowen, the inspector general in Iraq has uncovered many millions (if not billions) in fraud by our American sub-contractors. He's done an admirable job....which is why the republicans wanted to fire him. Luckily, the Dems and a few Republicans kept this from happening.
Can you guess the motivation for his firing?
This is another "battle" you've begun that you cannot win.
HEY.....WHERE's MY LIST?
