OH Dear! Who did this guy tick off at the WHITEHOUSE? The OIL corporations? Geesh, bet he or his son and the corupt REPUBICRATS will never see the inside of a prison. Stripes are to busy clashes with the SUV's they drive. He'll get a communte so will his son. Another ruse by the BU$H administration to coral coruption and greed. (YAWN )Enron first there guys.

Same ole thing diffrent day.I want a piece of the pie too.I want to be bought out buy some big money.Maybe than Iwould'nt have to worry about losing my job and starving to death.

Corruption,Corruption, there is a bad apple in every branch; including the Democratic Party. Before you make that presidential vote in 2008, make sure your canidate is a person of action and not a talker.

Just think if he were rising dogs to fight he might see some time like Vick.

Stephen is that you?

Maybe I should send you a copy of my opening breif describing an ethics crisis involving Duncan, Renkes, Stevens, Veco, Adak Fisheries,etc.

What do you suppose is in store for the Alaska Dems?

Did anyone look in the freezer? Maybe Alaskan Republicans use the same hiding place the Louisiana Democrats use. ... . All politicians are subject to corruption, it’s too easy and too tempting. Those who don’t take bribes might own or have a past history with a company. Cheney, Hilary Clinton and Lyndon Johnson come to mind quickly. My mayor and sheriff take local bribes and I suspect one of my Arkansas senators gets money from Tyson. Jimmy Carter was the most honorable man to reside in the White House in my lifetime. Not a great president but he’s honest to core. A truly honorable man. The late Governor Huey Long of Louisiana ran on the platform of theft and corruption. He promised he would steal less than his opponent. He built roads, schools, and did more for the poor in his state than any governor in US history. Claimed he was stealing every day. ... . It’s not a question of who is corrupt and who isn’t. It’s a question of who gets more done for the people and who does more for themselves and their rich friends at the expense of the people. There is corruption on both sides of the aisle. The problem today is that we focus more on catching our politicians than looking at issues. I don’t take sides, I just call ‘em like I see ‘em.

It is a shame. Elderly people all over this country are wondering how to pay for medicine - food- gas and the people who are elected to represent us are wondering who they can squeeze to get their house remodeled. I am just a 45 year old cafeteria worker. Helping my mom pay bills while her spouse is dying of lung cancer and I still have a child in school. I am so grateful I have a 25,000 a year job and a husband to help.
Where is the justice in America?
And whatever really happens to the people who cheat the citizens they are supposed to represent?
Welcome to America-
Land of opportunity?

Prison! 20yrs hard labor for all involved in wasting my tax money. I didn't get any tax refund this year though I work a regular 9-5 job at less than 40K a year and I'm taxed at around 30% like every other shmoe but these super rich dirtbags sure know how to work the system. Now the treasury secretary wants to up the debt limit another 780 billion dollars! We need Ron Paul!!!

Eric...there's a senator from West Virginia that might disagree with you...last name of Byrd

Wow, the book is thrown at him here at teh ultra-lib ABCNEWS. Innocent until proven guilty?? Not here......FBI raided his home because of his SON. He had HOUSEWORK DONE, which he said HE paid for out of his own pocket. Lets wait and see what happens, instead of raking him over the coals. Its not like he had money in the freeeeeeeezer

The problem of corruption is huge and it is not just Republicans. Democrats are just as bad. The new congress who was supposed to save the world from corruption is already refusing full disclosure. The system is broken.

Commute whatever sentence he will/should receive now! The Libby defense stratagem.

Well this comes as no surprise. I think if the FBI and IRS dig deep enough they may find this kind of arrangement between more of our political leaders and the oil industry. One could potentially argue that it could lead all the way up into the White House. Pure speculation on my part but not that far fetched. Now wouldn't that be a story...

Would be nice to see all the Rep vs Dem stuff stop. Just shows how the two parties have most people sucked in.

THERE ARE ALL CORRUPT! The Rep's and Dem's feed at the same trough.

HELP SAVE THE US... Never reelect an incumbent.

I'm surprised how much confidence Americans have in the power of vote. Basically as someone was saying here, you are just changing the crooks. There are crooks in both parties. Presidents of both parties lied. Both parties have corruption issues. Both parties went overboard in coming up with Patriot act and going to war with Iraq. Politicians on both sides are interested in making money first and serving people second. That said at this time I see more and more Republicans being corrupt and are liars, despite their Family values pitch. There are no good options. Good luck Americans!

This is NOT a Republican issue with corruption in the Government. There have actually been more Democrats charge with corruption then Republicans, but it is not the way the media reports about it. Please stop trying to make this a Partisan issue and report about all levels of it happening and maybe the public will wake up to it.

People it's time to get angry. You need to get all over your congressman about this. Congress can spend 350 million dollars of your money to build a bridge in Alaska for 50 people. And can spend 13 billion dollars a month on wars. But they cant spend a measly 10 billion dollars for one year to provide health care coverage for poor American children. The future of America.

You Know ????

Maybe it is time for term limits on Senators and Reps

Just another crooked rep who preaches one way and lives another
