		<description>I&#039;m think these thieves should be required to live in dorms and be supplied with small generic office space with limited budget for staff and be required to be under CONSTANT SURVEILLANCE the entire time they are in office(includes all accounts and family members).  Limit campaign contributions to $25 per person only in the year prior to an election they actually run and all funds must be spent or donated to a real charity, not political.  No corporate donations at all.  Any violation of the rules would result in manditory jail term and loss of all Govt benefits including pension.  Manditory Jail term for any persons assisting in circumventing rules(especially Lawyers! No attorney client privledge here at all!)

Maybe then we might get some honest people running for office.  Of course it would take an amendment to the constitution to do it. You can&#039;t use laws on these jerks.  They are too good at manipulating the language to make it totally meaningless and exmept themselves.

I know but I can fantasize can&#039;t I?  I just don&#039;t see any other way to stop the corruption and get people in office that can get positive things done for THE COUNTRY.</description>

		<description>And, YES, Wendy Button....who said what finally drove her to our side was (and I said to all those I know that THIS was the defining moment for Obama and it would be his downfall) the way the Left treated Joe the Plumber! When I was asked after the last debate who I thought won, I said &quot;Obama didn&#039;t just lose that debate, he just lost the election&quot; It IS NOT what Obama said TO Joe the Plumber, it is what Obama, along with Biden and the media is DOING to Joe the Plumber. there are those who don&#039;t even get Socialism, But Stalinism doesn&#039;t sell well here in America.</description>

		<description>Ayers office (yeah, he&#039;ll get one) will have a photo of Sirhan Sirhan. (I wonder if Obama will pardon him?)
Earlier this evening as I strolled though enemy territory (Union Square Park in Manhattan) there was this guy folding up all his many Obama T-shirts for the night. I asked if they were free....he chuckled and said they were $20 (hmmm...a capatalist). I told hem he&#039;d be giving them away on Wed. All the poor college kids down there can use them to cry into.</description>

Like Senator Durbin.

William Amos, Gov. Blag is Public official A but was Public official A raising money for Barack through this.  After all, Rezko did donate money to Barack.</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Communism: Forcibly taking other peoples property under the guise of government to give to your homies so they will have your back when challenges come.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;

Flavor 1: Socialist-a communist who is squeamish about doing &quot;wet&quot; work. That is - violence and killing.

Flavor 2: Marxist-a communist who advocates violent revolution and totalitarian government control over the people. 

Flavor 3: Leninist-a Marxist who employs  routine state intimidation, violence and killing as a technique to maintain power.

Flavor 4: Stalinist-a Leninist on steroids.

Flavor 5: Maoist-a Stalinist with no scruples.

Flavor 6: American Liberal: a socialist who thinks he&#039;s &quot;progressive&quot;.</description>

		<description>This is standard operating procedure for all congressional offices.  The GSA also provides furniture for congressional offices.  

It is silly, but these guys get exercised when a senior member leaves office, because not only does their prime real estate (office with the best veiw and conveniences) is to be re-awarded (sometimes by seniority - sometimes by lot) but so does their government provided furnishings.

This happens every cycle.

Yep, and those congressional leaders also get additional pay, starting with standing committee chairs, to Whips, to the Speaker.

This is nothing to become unhinged over.</description>
