I'm no longer keen on the current standards emerging as to many Republicans in office, and have never been keen on those by the Democrats. That leaves me a relatively disillusioned voter, to state the obvious. It just seems that everyone's out to ruin everyone else, and politicians use public office to ruin as many voters as possible. Not a very good outlook, I realize, but I wonder how accurate it just may be.

Doolittle connected to Abramoff who, with assistance from the La Cosa Nostra, "partnered" with Gus Boulis in Boulis' SunCruz gambling operation.
Next, just before Boulis is gunned down, Abramoff sends a counterfeit "payment" for ownership in SunCruz.
Suddenly SunCruz is the default comp trip for the GWOT Republicans in Congress.
Meanwhile, Muhammad Atta, while a student at Maxwell Air Force Base, is seen gambling in the same SunCruz floating casinos.
Nasty stuff.
Vote Ron Paul. Maybe Tancredo or Hunter.
Dems? Kucinich.
The rest of them are bad Samaritans.
