Do they really believe this stuff!

[grateful581]

Senate Minority leader Harry Reid had some tough words about the Republican party during a visit to Salt Lake City last wednesday.
He said "WE AS DEMOCRATS BELIEVE THERE SHOULD BE A BRIGHT LIGHT SHINING ON WASHINGTON. THE CULTURE OF CORRUPTION MUST END."

In response James Evans, Salt Lake County Republican chairman said "IF ANYTHING, DEMOCRATS WERE IN CONTROL OF CONGRESS FOR 40 YEARS, AND IF REPUBLICANS LEARNED ANYTHING ABOUT CORRUPTION, THEY LEARNED IT FROM THE DEMOCRATS."

This quote is pathetic. I wonder if they really believe this crap or if that was the newest talking point the repukes came up with.

2. when it comes to executive branch corruption, malfeasnace...

and the corporate sanctioning of white collar crime, the republican party is by far second to none; the republican party is THEE principle dissembler of american civil liberties always was, always is, and always will be.

3. Where do they get the Dems ruled for 40

years from? Aren't they forgetting tht repukes have also ruled during that 40 year time period? Guess Alito isn't the only one with selective memories

4. Both quotes are pathetic. Both men are politicians.

Both Parties are corrupt, rotting from the core.

5. Democrats followed a process that was transparent,

The Republicans not only circumvented the process, but they got rid of any regulating agency that would challenge them, got rid of any well-researched study which challenged them; and are continually blocking information from the public.

Democrats believed in Sunshine Laws, the Republicans undermine them. Who has more to hide?

7. Not only "who has more to hide",

question is, how much more have they hidden?

6. Oh yes

:eyes: I'm sure that's where they learned it from. *snort* What a lame ass excuse if I ever heard one. And that means it's okay that the republicans are so corrupt?

8. John Dillinger robbed banks so I rob banks...so it's okay....

See how that makes sense?

[TallahasseeGrannie]

9. I don't really think there

are any honest politicians. There, I said it. The main question is HOW dishonest are they? Is it as bad as the Bush Family Evil Empire or just a bj under the oval office desk?

I'm feeling kind of disillusioned tonight.

Maybe I'm moving towards anarchy. My middle schoolers would think that's cool.

10. "And I suppose, Senator, that if all of the OTHER senators ...

... jumped off a bridge, you'd just jump off the same bridge with them?"

I think it's time to call in the Mommies of all of these elected children, and remind them of that little adage ...

11. Republicans are pathetic n.t
