FCAlive, I agree that these things are disturbing and that these should be bigger stories on a domestic political level. Election reform is a separate issue and needs to be addressed. And if we can spend a year and 40 million dollars to investigate Bill Clinton's sex life, I'd be very interested in VP Cheney's involvement in Enron... clearly a bigger issue than groping some chubby intern.
There will always be a conflict of interest when someone who is supposed to serve the public, gets millions from a few big corps for their campaign.
We aren't debating the Enron scandal and big corps are in bed with politics on both sides of the fence.
It pisses me off and that's a big part of my beef with our gov't, but...
You're really losing me with suggesting that Bush and Cheney started a war for personal finances. It takes more than a few people to start a war and the senate and congress who approved the action, along with the 40-some odd countries who support the war I doubt have stock in these companies.
This is pretty far out there and you are the one who wants intelligent debate. Do you really believe that a few guys got together for a beer and decided to start a war with Iraq to make some cash?
