So, if you point out the Tea Party, how does that annul the fact, that Nixon, and the rest is any more justified???
Bobert, with all due respects, we've been around this bush before, about how corrupt Johnson was. I posted NUMEROUS links for you, when both Congress and the Senate, on both parties were grilling Bernanke and Geithner(among others) about, their handling of the finances...and you posted that you didn't even look at them....and, of course, I've maintained, even more NUMEROUSLY that the whole shootin' match is corrupt beyond belief..to which you reply that I'm just posting Republican 'talking points' or you shift the attention over to the Tea Party, which you're doing now.
What did Nixon have to do with the Tea Party??? Rather, what we have is one corrupt enterprise layering another corrupt enterprise.
That being said, I believe that most of the rank and file, of the Democrats, Republicans or Tea Party are sincere believers that 'their party' is the correct path..but now you know....and hopefully it matters. The best tool/weapon you have, is located somewhere between your heart, brain, has strings on it, and in your hands! ...just like before!! We should really stop fighting each other, and the petty issues that divide the country, stay focused, and be a force for truth...which is NOT found, nor is a monopoly in any of the political parties. They've all been 'given' a little truth and some misinformation...just enough to leave them powerless, but enough to make them vulnerable, to the 'other party's arguments! The last thing that the lying crooks want, is to have the public armed with the truth!...not just about 'little issues'...but the bigger picture, in which we all, as a people, nation, world ALL lose!..and have lost enough.
