Democratic Morals

If a congressman won't give you their vote freely, just buy it.

The sad thing is Rangel sees absolutely nothing immoral or dishonest in paying out $20,000,000,000 in bribes to get his own party members to side with his viewpoint against that of their constituents. If they were truly elected on a 'get out of Iraq' policy then their votes for the time line and funding restrictions legislation would have been automatic but the truth is several of the newly elected Democrats actually ran on much more hawkish platforms.

I'm still looking for a good explanation as to how freeing 25 million people from the grips of a ruthless tyrant is an immoral cause. You hear the claim repeated for most people it's become background noise, for me it still gets me every time I hear it.
