In light of the corruption/lying/cheating scandal that Detroit is now involved in, we ask ourselves, how does this differ from any other bottom feeding, scum-soaking politicians that presently run this country?
Ex-Prez. Bill Clinton?....he was a horn dog that got caught allowing oral lessions to be taught in the White House.
Former D.C. Mayor Marion Barry?...he was buried up to his nose in residual work.
NY Gov. Spitzer...he was caught with his hands in his sweetie's sweetmeat pie.
McCain?....wasn't he one of the original "Keating Five" who intervened on behalf of Charles Keating after his failed Lincoln Saving and Loan collapsed? Did we fail to mention that it was after Charles Keating donated $112,000.00 in contributions to McCain? In the 80's, McCain made several flights on Keatings private planes, was given trips to Keatings private retreat in the Bahamas, and wasn't McCain's wife and her dad the largest investors in an Keathing shopping mall investment plan in Phoenix? Didn't McCain often commit adultery? He lost his first wife due to adultery. His second wife, the daughter of a very wealthy Budweiser distributor was addicted to prescription narcotics and even stole hard drugs from a medical charity that she ran.
Hilary Clinton.....Whitewater was a real estate development in Arkansas that Bill and Hillary lost money in when it went belly up finally. Their partners, Jim and Susan McDougal, also owned a savings and loan association (Madison Guaranty) that hired Hillary and her firm, the Rose Law Firm. When the S&L failed, costing taxpayers over $65 million, the Whitewater vacation development collapsed. The 3 Whitewater special prosecutors, after 6 years and $40 million worth of investigation, concluded that "This office has determined that the evidence was insufficient to prove to a jury beyond a reasonable doubt that either President or Mrs. Clinton knowingly participated in any criminal conduct ... or knew of such conduct." Hardly a ringing declaration of innocence.
Hillary stated 99 times under oath in 1996 that she did not recall what work she did for Madison Guarantee. Kenneth Starr, the second special prosecutor had subpoenaed her billing records from Madison, and she reported that she couldn't find them. Two years later, the records turned up in the White House family residence under circumstances that Hillary has never been able to explain. The records showed that she met 15 times with Arkansas businessman Seth Ward concerning Whitewater, but she and Ward denied rememberin any of that.
Obama.....The media has been grilling Obama about his relationship with Tony Rezko, businessman and political fundraiser. Obama has said, “Tony Rezko was a friend and supporter of mine for many years." The media is pinpointing one event two years ago when the Obama’s bought a South side Chicago mansion for $1.6 million. Rezko, who happened to be along for the purchase, bought the vacant lot next to the mansion for $635,000. Then Rezko turned around and sold a 10-foot-wide strip to the Obama’s for $104,000, so they could widen their yard. Rezko even added a fence for $14,000. That leaves the public asking, what does Rezko expect in return? Obama claims it was just a business transaction, saying, “There are no allegations I did anything wrong, no allegations I betrayed the public trust, no allegations I did him any favors."
In light of this information, and the fact that Tony Rezko has just gone on trial in Chicago on unrelated public corruption charges, the timing could not be worse for Obama. Tony Rezko allegedly used his relationship as a fundraiser for Illinois governor Rob Blagojevich to extort kickbacks for state pension business.
In his own book, "Dreams From My Father", he redially admits that he's used marijuana and cocaine, but not heroin as he didn't like the herion dealer........hmmm, now he's getting selective?
Mitt Romney....he fought for a Mexican-American wall to be built along to border to prevent illegals mexicans from entering this country, yet for over 10 years, he employed illegal Columbian lawn care workers, paying them $8-9.00 an hour for up to 11 hours a day so that their house would look good....for whom? He claimed to have own guns, but never had and voted yes on the Brady Bill, and has claimed that he was supported by the NRA, but they categorically deny they offered him any support....
Pres's Roosevelt, Eisenhower, Kennedy and Johnson were believed to all have been involved in extra marital affairs. Ted Kennedy drove Mary Jo off the bridge in Massachusetts. Bob Dole was connected to the Money Laundering & Illegal Campaign Contributions, to where his wife recieved massive monies for her speeches, but more than that, numerous political favors for big money campaign contributors, sweetheart deal on his exclusive luxury condo,.
So you see folks, Detroit has it bad. But this entire country has it even worse with the back door dealings, the scruptulous dealings under the table, and the pay offs to those who are in office from them that bride them to give them what they want.
WELCOME TO AMERICAN POLITICS, FOLKS. ENJOY IT, FOR YOU SIMPLY CANNOT STOP IT.........OR CAN YOU???

Sizzling, Cynical, Aggrevating, Ominus, Unrelenting, Intolerable, Uncaring, but realistic enough to know that we can be proven wrong. We (the spouse) and I are 2 different individuals who think different, but see the world through rose colored glasses. Each of us have our own idealisms on how the world should, could, or would be run, but we are not you. We are us. Don't think for a second that we can think as you. We are also full nudists who run a nudist organization here in Minnesota. We accept the belief that "if God had intended us to be clothed, we would have been born that way". It's our lifestyle. We hate clothing, we hate tan lines, and we believe that the sun is beneficial to the body.
