Thanks for that. I've often thought about what sets them apart as they appear to have no sense of compassion or even justice for their fellow man, and you have hit the nail on the head. CHENEY is the head honcho, the King of Cruel. Notice how we haven't heard anything from him in months since they were squeezing Rove's balls over the Valerie Plame affair. Scooter Libby took a dive, but HAH! got a slap on the wrist and his fine was paid in advance.

I agree with you about the body politik right now being Sleaze City.
It's taken most of the American people YEARS to figure that out.
It was the liberals who smelled cronyism from the start.
