That is, if the White House and both chambers of Congress are controlled by Democrats, will the government be as corrupt as it is now with a Republican controlled White House and Congress?

Eventually I think it will. It will take a while for the lobbyist to turn them but most of them will turn corrupt as money and power seem to have that effect on humans in general.

Whether we like it or not, there will always be corruption in government. It is not however, confined to government alone. It lives everywhere. Government, law enforcement, schools, churches, professionals, are held to a higher standard. We expect more from them and we should get it. We have the responsibility to ferret out corruption wherever we find it, make it public and aid in putting an end to it.

I don't know... congress will always have elements of corruption...
maybe it's just because it's been recent... but this past congress seems very corrupt, EVEN FOR POLITICIANS... all the way through the leadership, with delay...
I can't see it being any more corrupt... that would be a hard thing to do, I think... possible, but not easy...

apart from the willingness to "adjust his 16 month plan for withdrawal," he has not replaced. it truly is what he's continually been putting forward. you've been listening to the Republican propaganda that suggested he became loopy left. he's been middle left; about as far left as McCain became good. they are both very middle. yet you listened to them at the same time as they tried to pin far left suggestions to Obama; and now that he's putting forward the middle suggestions (which he has been putting forward all alongside), you say he switched and moved to middle. He became continually there, he under no circumstances espoused the far left suggestions in many situations attributed to him with the help of Republican propaganda aspects. it rather is except the 16 month withdrawal idea. That became it from the starting up and that i do agree he appears to be like leaving in the back of it. i'm rather shocked he did; it messes inclusive of his image of being "a clean kind of politician." i imagine he's attempting to get those contained in the middle, those who discover themselves not particular the position they stand on the problem of the warfare. they prefer out, yet they don't favor to leave and not using a victory--rather they are going decrease to and fro on the problem. they prefer out NOW, yet they don't desire out with a loss. they don't comprehend which they prefer extra. i imagine Obama is attempting to soften his stance in order that that they are going to experience he will pay interest to each and every of the information and under no circumstances make a drastic move in spite of the indisputable fact that if the circumstances advise he ought to do in the different case. nonetheless, it does make him seem extra like the former politicians than the hot one he promised to be. He desires to be careful; once later on must be forgiven yet too a lot and he will lose maximum of his modern help and may not get any new help.

Corrupt is a relative thing. There is no doubt that it would be at least as corrupt as it is now. Corruption is in the eye of the beholder.

I think the Clinton administration was as corrupt as one could be and even though the Dems will get beat in 08 if they could find a candidate who could win more corruption as they invented it
