Great idea!
So let's start at the top with the ever vacationing Bush and his gang, Cheney, Rummy, Rove and the rest of those criminals in Wash DC breaking the law.
Arrest them all!!!

I hate to break it to you, but if we arrested every politician who broke the law, there'd be 9 people in the Senate and 24 in the House.

"Duke" Cunningham to prison, hold an election and replace his crooked ass. Next is that piece of pig excrement, Tom DeLay and that black weasel from Georgia, then Jerry Lewis, etc etc, regardless of political affiliation. As we continue to find political crooks and jail them, two things will take place, booth of which should appeal to any law abiding citizen:
1. Future Congress people, goverment types and lobbyists will be far more circumspect about breaking the law.
2. Eventually we may find ourselves with honest people holding a majority in Congress!

Hillary is an example of everything wrong with politics. If your spouse was caught cheating, how many people would stand by them and support them? Not many, unless you have a reason. A divorce would have ruined her image, and that's what politics is all about, who has the better image, and who can pull the most strings because they know the most people. Oh yeah, and being a millionaire seems to help too.

I was refering to her questionable practices as a lawyer and her landholding fiasco that cost many people thier life savings. Not that many lawyers don't operate outside the rules and spirit of the laws, but she is a fine example of politics overiding morals.

Different example, same basic concept

"A divorce would have ruined her image, and that's what politics is all about, who has the better image, and who can pull the most strings because they know the most people."

I'm not sure having her image "ruined" by divorce was all that much of a concern:

Ronald Reagan - divorced the mother of two of his children to marry Nancy Reagan, who bore him a daughter only 7 months after the marriage.
Bob Dole - divorced the mother of his child, who had nursed him through the long recovery from his war wounds.
Newt Gingrich - divorced his wife who was dying of cancer.
Dick Armey - House Majority Leader - divorced
Sen. Phil Gramm of Texas - divorced
Gov. John Engler of Michigan - divorced
Gov. Pete Wilson of California - divorced
George Will - divorced
Sen. Lauch Faircloth - divorced
Rush Limbaugh - Rush and his ex-wife Marta have six marriages and four divorces between them.
Rep. Bob Barr of Georgia - Barr, not yet 50 years old, has been married three times. Barr had the audacity to author and push the "Defense of Marriage Act." The current joke making the rounds on Capitol Hill is "Bob Barr... WHICH marriage are you defending?!?"
Sen. Alfonse D'Amato of New York - divorced
Sen. John Warner of Virginia - divorced (once married to Liz Taylor.)
Gov. George Allen of Virginia - divorced
Henry Kissinger - divorced
Rep. Helen Chenoweth of Idaho - divorced
Sen. John McCain of Arizonia - divorced
Rep. John Kasich of Ohio - divorced
Rep. Susan Molinari of New York - Republican National Convention Keynote Speaker - divorced

Didn't seem to slow these monkey's political careers down.

Deja vu, I think I remember this from another thread...but none of those people had a successful career after divorcing the President of the United States. If you think Hillary would have any sort of successful political career had it not been for Bill, then you are severly mistaken.

I guess only Republicans divorce. Oh well. I'm glad hell-ary took one for the donkey team.

Rep is representative... versus Sen for senator.

[WGJ]

but they're not the monkey's trying to equate marriage and a civil union as the same thing with all the sanctimonious religious overtones. Landshark made the call: Marriage for those with religious beliefs, civil union for the secular and/or homosexuals who want to be legally recognized as a couple. Seems reasonable to me.

You've lost me. What did Hillary do that makes you say "she is a fine example of politics overiding morals."? And are you confusing morals with law? If we start going after people's moral positions, THEY'D ALL BE IN JAIL and we'd be known as a theocracy or a dictatorship...there would be no due process.

Laws are partly formed for the sake of good men, in order to instruct them how they may live on friendly terms with one another, and partly for the sake of those who refuse to be instructed, whose spirit cannot be subdued, or softened, or hindered from plunging into evil.

I think that was the neo-cons plan at the beginning. Turn us into a Theocracy. What did Anne Coulter say? Something about converting all the Muslims to Christianity "after" we bomb them all?

A neo-con is the closest thing the US has for a radical islamic terrorist. Almost the same thing, just a different religion. If there was a country that they actually felt threatened by, they'd be over there bombing them.

Oh....wait... Iraq.
