They act like they’re just interested in stripping the place right before they file for national bankruptcy.

Where’s all our social and economic justice? These creeps are victimizers, not victims.

….these “professional victims” have been at this for so long that it is in their mission statement….on top of that the PC press lacks both intelligence to understand and the courage to write about these crimes……

I don’t care what party you belong to in Washington, you want to start reducing America’s DEBT start with memebers of Congress (House and Senate) and weed them out. I think every last one of them needs to be investigated!!! That’s the problem…too much GREED, CORRUPTION, and POWER with our top officials!!! Oh and OBUMA needs to go first, he should be investigated and thrown in jail for his antics (LIES and CONSTITUTIONAL THEFT)!

ah ha   October 31st, 2009 - 7:00 am

I say give the leaker a nice year end bonus for being transparent, something Obama and the democrats are not.

If you count up the names that were listed it almost came out to 10% of the whole Congress. That may be why America just doesn’t trust Congress. It is usually very easy to recognize a rat when you get a good look at it. We see most of these crooks all the time because they are mostly in higher positions. Most of the Chairman are under investigation. But don’t worry because the head of the Ethics Panel is a flaming Democrat who is also under investigation, or will be when they get the report back from Countrywide.

Congress is like your typical breakfast cereal – take away the fruits and nuts and all you have left are flakes.

Scoundrels, all of them. Both Democrats and Republicans, but mostly Democrats, he-he-he… Let’s boot them out now. Enough of the CORRUPTION! Put ‘em in jail now, anything, for Heavens Sake.

A government big enough to give you everything you want,
is strong enough to take everything you have.

It’s long past due that ALL elected officials AND appointed officials should be THOROUGHLY backgrounded and that includes being tested for illegal drug use.

claspur   October 31st, 2009 - 10:45 am

off duty…

Thought about the same, three days ago…seriously.

The reason why-is; I’ve seen Barry losing weight? (look)

So we are supposed to trust our private medical records with these clowns?

Phesto   October 31st, 2009 - 1:02 pm

Human error? What a crock of rubbish. This was released just in time for election season.

deek   October 31st, 2009 - 1:39 pm

Shocker . . . .maybe not so much. More of the same, and I hope they finally start cracking down on the corruption in Washington.

America…really…do they actually have to do an investigation?

Have not we heard the rumors, in some instances, for years now?

I am glad they are finally feeling the pressure from “real” Americans speaking up and speaking out…but we do not have to wait until any investigation.

America…many of these slugs need to be voted out period! They have gone too far in deceiving and using their political clout to gain riches by virtue of their office!

They have broken their oath of office and need to go!

Find out how you can get involved in your local politics to get the vote out and get rid of them!

Keep fighting, America, they may have power for the “moment” but we have the “momentum” to get rid of them…and “yes we can” and “yes we will”!

“Change” and “hope” is finally coming!

================================

THE REVOLUTION OF THE SILENT MAJORITY – SILENT NO MORE!

1. GETTING INFORMED
2. GETTING INVOLVED

DO NOT TREAD ON US…WE PAY YOUR BILLS IN WASHINGTON AND IN YOUR HOMES WHERE YOU WILL ALL BE GOING STARTING IN 2010 AND BEYOND…GUARANTEED!

IMPEACHMENT OR THE ‘ORIGINAL’ KENYAN BIRTH CERTIFICATE…IT IS JUST A MATTER OF TIME!

Super Patriot   October 31st, 2009 - 3:03 pm

Congress is going to get a serious bitch slap in 2010 and this treasonous administration is going to get served shortly after. Liars, traitors, and thiefs fill our governemnt at every level. The Calvary is coming.
