At long last Congress to investigate the corruption that goes to the top.

With "Super Tuesday" taking up most of the news little attention has been paid to
the Congressional investigation that will finally stop the corruption that goes all the
way to the top. About Time!

Is it the 9/11 Commission's director working with Karl Rove to block any damaging
details from coming out? Such as the President was warned about the attack but was
busy planning a war in Iraq? Or that Condi Rice flat out blew it as far as 9/11 was
concerned?

no

How about all the payments Senator Rockefeller has taken from "telle-com" companies and is now
working to give the companies immunity?

1. this kind of crap makes me so angry... it is entirely indicative of the major problem with our
government. They are corrupt, and are aiding each other by only investigating things that don't really matter.

have low approval ratings and are considered to be a "do nothing" congress. BTW, I heard Durbin on the Senate floor a few minutes ago already talking about their Presidents Day recess, 5 or 6 working days after they returned from their month long Christmas Holiday.
