To: The GameRe: conservatives pleasing Liberals, once again you are confusing all Liberals with the radical far left that scares even us. You are also confusing traditional conservatives with neo-cons/corporate globalists. If you can not grasp the true meaning of Liberal and the fact that Liberals can have so called conservative views you will never understand that Liberals can support conservatives on some issues. Tom Delay. Karl Rove, Dick Cheney, etc. do not count as traditional conservatives. They are liars and crooks and it has been proven over and over. Why do you continue to support the Ameri-fascists? Help take your party back from them and hopefully the country will become UNITED again.

About a week ago Sen. Kay Baily Hutcheson (TX) was on cable t.v. stating that we had to cut the budget to find the money for the Gulf Coast rebuilding. Of course, no funds could be cut to Haliburton, er that is, the Iraqi War or Freedom or whatever. She actually suggested that we cut funding to "infrastructure". Now, she did not mention "transportation pork" and did not specify, but a good part of what caused the problem in New Orleans were cuts in infrastructure (the levees and/or building up the area) and now we should pay for it with more cuts in infrastructure!

Ron,To be honest...who knows what Delay did? I just know that the prosecutor and many of the people on the grand jury are dem's out to get Delay...he still might have broken the law...but based on the lack of integrity from the prosecutor, I will guess he did not break any laws..Second, when people like Pelosi come out and talk trash when she does many of the same practices (the free trips) and doesn't report them...she can just sit there and keep her mouth shut unless she wants to properly fill out paperwork on all her illegal trips...It’s just a joke to call made up charges a culture of corruption...

Game, Who knows what Tom Delay did??Pretty much everybody in Washington and if you think he's anywhere near clean you are quite deluded.Notice how many Clinton people were indicted, tried and convicted. That is all we are asking. Get the crooks out of government. If it's up to you guys to keep us honest then I guess it is our job to keep the repubs honest.

We may congratulate ourselves that this cruel war is nearing its end. It has cost a vast amount of treasure and blood ... It has indeed been a trying hour for the Republic; but I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country. As a result of war, corporations have been enthroned and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the Republic is destroyed. I feel at this moment more anxiety for the safety of my country than ever before, even in the midst of war. God grant that my suspicions may prove groundless."President Abraham Lincoln
