You know, I'm old enough now that I'm no longer surprised that every
politician of every party can be bought. What surprises me now is just
how cheaply they can be bought. I mean, I could take my downpayment for
the house I'm closing on next week, and buy half the Senate for these
rates.

cut their backs open and pull their lungs out from behind?

You guys are soooooo jaded. This country has the best politicians that
money can buy.

At least in Mexico everyone accepts corruption as a fact of life. In this
country we still pretend our leaders are all like George Washington (well,
he was a bit of a crook, too ;) and only America has the "American Dream"
and assorted bull****.
