Dear Democrats,
I would like to know why all of you like to bash republicans. However when one of your own gets caught with their hand in the cookie jar, why all of you and all of the newspapers sit very quiet.
Senator Feinstein has funneled more than $1 Billion to companies controlled by her husband.

William Jefferson was caught with a $90,000 bribe in his freezer in new orleans

If I remember correctly, republicans Cunningham and Ney went to jail for things like this. Why are members of the democratic party protecting their own? Why aren't these two on the cover of every newspaper and the lead story every night?
Is this the democratic culture of corruption and cover up?

because of the media. i am not sure why the media is liberal but it must be if they are not covering this story. the media has become a source of left leaning propaganda. they are no longer reporting news as much as op/eds with some facts. i would like for once opinions to be left out and just put the facts forward for me to decide.

Gotta love those cookies............
When D.C. corruption is brought up, Republicans won't honestly own it. They blithely claim that all politicians are corrupt, and that current corruption problems affect both major parties equally. That's simply not true today in D.C.
Republicans then invariably move on to reiterate their James Dobson-inspired mantra that Republicans are the party of "values voters" . I ask you... What values would those be?
It's as if Republicans obsess about the speck in Democratic eyes, but fail to notice the depraved log in their own eye.
There's no hope for changing the Republican Culture of Corruption until they admit the problem, and work publicly, diligently and honestly to replace their corrupt leaders in Washington D.C.
Until that time, the only viable moral values ballot-box choice is to vote Democratic.

I'm a democrat and I can't stand Feinstein. She's ineffective and a republican in disguise. Indeed, she's a trickster in true form. She reauthorized the Patriot Act, sponsored a bill to restrict freedom of speech, and backed the Iraq war for quite a while. I refuse to vote for her.

No, yet I as quickly as discovered the difficult way that chocolate wasn't candy until it has sugar further to it. i replaced into basically sufficiently previous to study, possibly 6 years previous, and on an identical time as my mom replaced into sleeping, I have been given a chair and climbed as much as the cabinet and snuck a brilliant bite of baking chocolate, yet i did no longer understand that unsweetened chocolate could be so bitter!

I love it when Democrats run on a platform of cleaning up corruption in government while taking money under the table from special interests they despise.
It's like what Yassir Arafat said to the PLO: "When I say 'Peace to Israel,' that is your signal to step up the terrorist attacks."

I'm a California liberal. Now you know why I've never voted for her and never will.
Chris H... Makes excellent points on this matter. I know alot of democrats and independent liberals in California and none of us can stand her for the reasons Chris H has mentioned. She's a hawk in a coif.
BTW arcticch…many liberals didn't for Clinton during his two terms either. I'm one of them. I didn't trust him. And, your president Bush and V.P Cheney are still a lying SOBs. I haven't heard you admit that truth and own it either.

She's been a politician for so long it's just impossible that she hasn't gotten caught up in some corrupt act or another. No politician with her decades of experience - Dem or Rep - could possibly be 'innocent.'

I'm sure that everyone with an inkling of common sense and the slightest knowledge of the media and politics, knows the answer to that question, as do you.

It's *different* when it's a Dem. Don't know why, but it is.
Look at all the people howling with outrage that "BUSH LIED!"
Most of those same people had *no* problem with Clinton committing perjury while in office. I guess it's moral relativism....

You raise a point I have often wondered myself. Good luck getting an honest answer from a lib.
