Well, not even mentioning ppl like Tom Delay, Libby, Rove, etc... in the republican party and just looking at the most recent presidents:
Nixon = watergate
Reagan = Iran Contra - he got away with treason
Bush Sr. = world bank scandal
Bush Jr = lieing to congress and the American pp about WMDs...
Bush Jr = breaking laws and not getting congressional approval
Bush Jr = geneva convention violations
more...

Basically, whoever is in power is the most corrupt. People only attempt to bribe those who can actually help them. That's why we are seeing so many scandals involving Republicans on the national level. However, here in North Carolina, where the Democrats have control (and you thought NC was a red state, I bet), there is an on-going scandal involving the Democratic Speaker of the House.

they're the two extra or` much less. the version, if any, between the two is in what their concentration on. For the Republicans, they make judgements that are helping company pursuits, and the cuts in spending would be directed at social classes. The Democrats attempt to concentration schedule on American high quality of existence, and could purpose to assist training, healthcare, nutrition, and protection nets for the extra youthful, elderly and undesirable. on an identical time as the ideologies are doubtless to a pair on a polar opposition, i think of, they actually finally end up finding plenty the comparable because of the fact the status quo. by way of money and power gamers pursuits and lobbying for self pursuits, and because no remember how a youthful baby-kisser starts interior the interest, with a real opt to serve factors and the yankee human beings, little with the help of little, this is found out the techniques and character they have will must be revised in the event that they're to make it interior the political section. this isn't any longer approximately who's extra corrupt, yet what would be bargained away, sacrificed, and so directly to realize slightly legislations that grew to become right into a purpose that has morphed into some thing unrecognizable. The celebration doubtless extra hypocritical is The Republican celebration, because of the fact they extra or much less sell the conservative social values, the ethical subject concerns around abortion, creationism in colleges, gay marriage made unconstitutional, the conflict on drugs, dying penalty, restrict of genetic finding out, intercourse training, and so on. So, whilst a Republican is caught hitting on a youthful male internet site, whilst he grew to become into heading a software to capture on line pedophiles, it screams hypocrisy. no longer that Democrats have not got their honest proportion of ethical ineptitude, yet they don't seem to be preaching ethical values, and that's the version there. all of them lie, and that they've not got a call. we don't opt to take heed to the actuality. whilst a infant-kisser speaks from the middle, and it does not stick to the celebration line, they're ostracized with the help of the celebration. No, the folk who could make the appropriate leaders, are not fascinated in protecting that seat, on the whole because of the fact they understand the interest is grimy, and not relatively worth merchandising their authentic selves.

You are correcta-mundo Gomer!
Republicans have been much more corrupt since they've become so "drunk on power" that they can't see straight.
Joshua Micah Marshall of Talking Points Memo keeps an AWESOME update of various politicians and lobbyists who have... let's say.. not been on the up & up.
It also reminds us that Jack Abramoff is off to jail in just a couple of weeks!!!

Republicans are corrupted by big business and democrats are corrupted by big labor. So I say both are equally corrupt.

To choose the lesser of two evils is still choosing evil. The constitution party is what the Republican party was around 50 years ago to include a true Christian base.

It changes from generation to generation. They're all corrupt, but I'd say the left is a little more deceptive than the right is.

I'ma say which ever has more power is the more corrupt because they are more capable of abusing said power. So currently I'ma say the Repubs, but in 4-8 years, who knows, it may be the Dems @ that point. But right now, definitely Repubs.
