Crooked and Idiots

Sensible people have to wonder whether there is anyone in the Republican leadership that possesses grey matter between their ears. With all the controversy surrounding them regarding bribery, cronyism, and other assorted illegalities, one would think that they would want to cleanse themselves. Well apparently they live in some type of alternate reality, their own little “Alice in Wonderland" world.

Sen. Bill Frist has actually appointed Sen. Rick Santorum, a key player in the influence peddling K Street Project — to develop the conservative's version of lobbying reform. Huh? More incredulously, the House has assigned one of it's most corrupt members, who has been named as a participant in the Abramoff scandal – and will likely be indicted soon, to instruct new lawmakers on ethics! Before newly elected lawmakers take their seats in the House of Representatives, they will attend a week long orientation that will be held by none other than Rep. Bob Ney of Ohio.

Incredible! This would be hilarious if it wasn't so depressing.
