<< ...Let's also not forget that our kind, benevolent government slugs were not only caught lying a number of times, but violating the GCSPA themselves. So, will they be prosecuted? I kinda doubt it. Classic example of "do what I say, not as I do." >>
Too true, too true. There was a policical cartoon in the local paper where a bunch of senators are grilling an Enron executive and one them says, "Cooking the books! Passwing off phony-baloney numbers as the truth! Do you realize what you could be charged with?" And the Enron executive answeres, "Impersonating a congressman?"
Not that government hypocracy is anything new. How about the fact that many, many, members of our government use their positions to help companies that give them campaign money while ignoring the needs of actual voters? Or how about using their positions of power to have sex with their interns? Yeah, what a great bunch of people we have running our government. Oh well, maybe I'll run for president some day on the platform of, "Are you tired of all these lowlife, bloodsucking, idiotic hypocritical parasites?" On second thought, maybe that's not such a good idea.
