gee, Doug & pdq.... for several years we have seen on TV (if we don't restrict our viewing to Faux News and Rush Limbaugh), stories of various scandals, cronyism, incompetence, ignoring of the law to promote entrenched conservative 'values', INCLUDING the graft & corruption Amos mentioned.
   Daring Amos to produce all the detailed evidence here in this thread is a classic tactic. This not a court! 'SOME' of the Bush administartion aided & abetted cases have already BEEN in court...others are being stonewalled by the "Justice" *cough* department run by, first, "I cant remember" Gonzales and then "I don't see it" Mucasey.
   I am assuming that there is a careful plan to make thousands of additional emails and incriminating documents disappear before Jan.20 if Obama is elected. (prove it? I don't have to prove it...it's not my job to prove it. Evidence does leak out that the practice is common. Those whose job it is to 'prove' it may have trouble proving anything EXCEPT that evidence is gone!)

   This administration is guilty of widespread abuse OF power in order to KEEP power. All Amos & I and others can do is note that we aren't dumb and can read and listen and make notes.

I don't claim this Dept. of Interior scandal was 'planned' at the highest level of the Bush administration...but whoever did participate in it was almost certainly protected and quietly encouraged by the tenor of things to do whatever it takes to assure administration goals are met.
I know it, and if you are not closing your eyes and plugging your ears and pretending....YOU know it, too!

If McCain wins, just how damn much real 'change' do you think will be made in those embedded policies? Many thousands of bureaucratic lackeys will stay right where they are and just 'keep on keeping on' as before.

pdq is right "we don't gotta show you no steeenkin' facts!" the stink is there, and we can smell 'em!
