Something that makes me laugh is any post-Clinton Democrat going on about being more ethical than anybody else.

I think all but 1 or 2 Dems in out district have either been indicted by the Fed Govt, or have already been convicted. We don't have any Republicans, so they haven't been given a chance to be corrupt.

At least theyre not as hypocritical as the republicans. Campaign for 'protecting traditional families' - sleep with a gay prostitute. Hate 'teh ebil gheyz' - except for my daughter, its just all the REST that are monsters. The party for small, less-powerful government - unless we have control of it.

Dems can be hypocritical too. Al Gore and his use of environmental credits to offset his high usage of energy is a cop out. I work in a company that deals in environmental credits. It's the Chicago Climate Exchange's answer to the Kyoto Protocol. I believe Edwards has an issue too when it comes to addressing poverty while he works a hedge fund. "Edwards has been uncautiously ostentatious" is a good quote from this article.

If I had a house 1/2 the size of either of these gentlemen (who have hands softer than a baby's), I am sure I'd at least turn out some of the lights.

Well we're Movin' on Up!
Movin' on Up!
To the east side!
Movin' on Up!
To a dee-luxe apartment in the sky, We're movin' on up!
Movin' on Up!
To the east side!
Movin' on Up!
We've finally got a piece of the pie!
Fish don't fry in the kitchen,
Beans don't burn on the grill.
Took a whole lotta tryin'
Just to get up that hill.
Now we're up in the big leagues,
Gettin' our turn at bat!
As long as we live,
It's you and me, baby!
There ain't nothin' wrong with that!
Hooray, We're Movin' on Up!
Movin' on Up!
To the east side!
Movin' on Up!
To a dee-luxe apartment in the sky! We're Movin' on Up!
Movin' on Up!
To the east side!
Movin' on Up!
We've finally got a piece of the pie!
