Abuse of power

[FluffyMcDeath]

Well, we now have Palin found guilty of abusing her power. We also know that the Bush administration has been abusing it's power (big surprise).

Besides the Justice department scandal of politicized firings of AGs, the abuse of "executive privilege" to hide wrong-doing and plenty of other stuff like using public money for propaganda and planting pentagon mouthpieces in the media, etc. ..

Here's another tiny data point:

Using public funds to campaign for Republicans.

You see, the way it's supposed to work is you use public funds to make life better for the public so they'll vote for you again. You're not supposed to just steal the money then steal some more to propagandize the public into voting for your thieving gang another time.

Wasn't one of the things that McCain and Palin shouted about so often was being the new begining, a break from the corruption of the past?

And they say Yanks don't do irony.
