Bush is now a liberal.

Lord Acton said it best.

"Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely."

The state of politics in this country is sad and sickening all at once.

it is.

many candidates run with the agenda of working for the people and doing their work. then they get up there and fall right into the system, with all its corrupt ways. you might have a legit piece of legislation, but by god if you don't vote for a fellows pork, guess where you're stuff is going?

ben franklin wanted our leaders to be unpaid, now wouldn't that be something? many of them get up there, and then just do what they can to stay in office a few years so they can get retirement. and that of course is full pay! it's ridiculous.
