Imagine if every Republican (and reasonable human being) in Tennessee knew that their Democratic Senator-would-be thinks Republicans don't love the Lord.
Imagine if every family with a military member in harm's way knew that John Kerry thinks people in the military are there because they're stupid (his word) and didn't try to become smart or make anything of themselves.
Imagine if every family in America knew that a Democratic Senate would honor a new Senate Majority leader who has a history of ethics problems - most recently clear violations of Senate ethics rules regarding financial reporting and a highly questionable sweetheart land deal. The kind that make politicians rich off of you and me.
To really imagine the impact of these things, you have to think back to the CBS faked papers that they attacked President Bush with two years ago. You have to remember that CBS said they wouldn't even investigate to see if they were fake after unimpeachable evidence had proven them so.
The mainstream media won't let these things gain light of day. They want the Democrats in power so they're hiding the corruption, arrogance and pompous self-righteousness that permeates the leadership of that party.
- They're talking about Mark Foley (who was forced out) but not Barney Frank who's pages allegedly ran a male prostitiution ring out of his townhome, and who is still in the Democrats leadership plans.
- They're talking about Duke Cunningham (who was forced out) but not William Jefferson , who was caught taking bribes and with $90k in his freezer this past spring, and who is on the Democrats leadership team.
- They're talking about Tom DeLay, who was forced out, but not Alcee Hastings - impeached from the judiiciary for taking bribes and who will be heading a committee for the Democrats.
- They're talking about Bob Ney, who was forced out, but not Harry Reid, who has had alleged ethics violations regarding campaign funds, the Indian population and, this summer, shady land deals that enriched him.
- They're talking about Republicans who are no longer around (and are gone for a good reason) but not Harold Ford's family history steeped in corruption - most recently his aunt was kicked out of the State House when it was discovered that dead people, non-residents and multiple voting residents pushed her over the top in her last election. Or his fathers financial windfall from a company that does business with the government that Harold influences on one of his committees. And Harold would be one of their rising stars.
Corruption, arrogance and nastiness have congealed at the heart of the Democratic party. While the Republicans are purged, the Democrats seem unfazed by their ethically bankrupt members. In fact, they reward them with leadership positions.
Imagine if the media would mention these things.
