Repug astroturfers: we give up!
It seems you are hitting all the blogs now saying "Democrats are just as corrupt as Republicans."

Well, maybe we'll get to respond to all your astroturfs, and maybe we won't. For those we miss, I offer this blanket surrender.

We give up. You won.

We can never be as corrupt as you.

I mean, not only did you beat us handily in stealing elections and exploiting Indian Tribe cash. You downright stole money away from our military in a time of war to put into party coffers and the pockets of your critters. How can we possibly compete with that?

And you won on style too -- that double-play of appointing unqualified cronies to some of our most vital government agencies as a political reward, and then using them to make your corporate stock portfolios grow was pure genious. Plus, you handily didn't even bat an eye at screwing up our WMD counterproliferation activities to stay in the lead! I mean, that was pure team loyalty there. We can't match that -- too many of us might have got distracted over the safety of the country to pull that one off.

You sucked up every damn dollar on the playing field that you could, and were able to completely turn a blind eye to the consequences! What loyalty! What Unity! (Oh, for those of you low on the team ladder who have yet to see any of that money, our condolensces -- but at least you get to take a photo of yourself holding the trophy!)

And I bet you have a nasty economic surprise or two up your sleeve whereby there just won't be enough money put into the game anymore, so it will pretty much be impossible top you ever again. Game set and match.

:party: You've totally outdone us. You're the all-time American corruption champions. :party:

There, happy now?

1. I'm afraid the corruption will finally break the bank...
Grab X dollars and you're X dollars ahead.

Grab 1000 X dollars and the system collapses and everyone has nothing.
