Draining the swamp is a full time job...

...when it comes to the Democrats. Of course Waters is claiming the charges are based on race. How shocking she would say such a thing. I love it; folks will have to DVR the televised trails of Rangel and Waters so they can go out and vote in the mid-terms. I'm sure their fellow Democrats are loving these two stellar public servants about now.

"Facing Ethics Charges, Rep. Waters Points Finger at Bush Administration"

Well, that clears this little mess up Maxine. No sense in even going any further on this. The people that voted for this woman need to be drug tested.

Actually it will be the same mindset that will elect this Democrat as well:

Interesting article...

Does Barack Obama want to be re-elected in 2012?
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/barackobama/7958031/Does-Barack-Obama-want-to-be-re-elected-in-2012.html

Interesting take on Obama and rings a bit true. He certainly is on the opposite side of most Americans on many issues from the mosque to the Arizona law; as if he really doesn't care. Now I doubt he would choose not to run in 2012 but that would finally be a policy of his I supported. He does give the appearance he is almost disinterested in being president. I think he's spent more time at the golf course and on vacation than in the Oval Office. Seems a bit distant and rather aloof. Makes sense as well when you think about Jimmy Carter and his presidency and post-presidency life when you consider Obama is often thought of as a second coming of Carter. If by slim chance he didn't run I'm sure the Democrats wouldn't have to look far for Carter III.

Conway: U.S. Withdrawal Deadline Boosts Taliban in Afghan War
http://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/2010/08/24/conway-us-withdrawal-deadline-boosts-taliban-in-afghan-war-2/

I wonder who knows better, the generals or the politicians? I guess it decides on your individual thoughts on the war. While stating a timeline for withdrawl earns valuable political points when the majority of Americans are against it, it certainly isn't an approved technique for fighting a war.

"Conyers lost driver's license after renewal check bounced"
http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/122281-conyers-lost-drivers-license-after-renewal-check-bounced

"Conyers, who chairs the Judiciary Committee, attempted to renew the license Feb. 2 but months later was informed that he wrote a check for the renewal on an account with insufficient funds. The license was suspended June 30 until July 26 when Conyers paid the fee."

Isn't that exactly what the Democrats are doing to the nation's bank account? How about we suspend their governing rights when they spend our money that isn't there?

"CNN Poll: Was Bush better president than Obama?"
http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2010/10/08/cnntime-poll-was-bush-better-president-than-obama/

"By 47 to 45 percent, Americans say Obama is a better president than George W. Bush. But that two point margin is down from a 23 point advantage one year ago."

I wonder what all the mouth-frothing rabid Bush haters think of this. If you believe the haters, Bush was the worst president in American history. If that is in fact true you gotta give Obama credit, he accomplished in two years what it took Bush eight years to do. Jimmy Carter is loving Obama about now.
