Why America Does Not Trust Republicans

This is another prime example of why America has lost faith in our government and our political system. The Republicans talk a lot about their moral superiority, but they invariably rush to the defense of immoral scumbags like Tom Delay, "Duke" Cunningham and Jack Abramhoff.

The Abramhoff scandal is just getting started and each day they are unearthing more and more shady, corrupt deals.

This is a real gem, Tom Delay's former aide, Edwin Buckham, was found to have pocketed 33% of the income from his supposedly "nonprofit" organization, totaling over $1 Million. Most of this income has been tied to Abramhoff.

And the Republicans are the ones sanctimoniously claiming that their moral superiority allows them to dictate whether someone should be kept alive artificially, or whether hurricane victims "deserve" help.
