It is the lifelong politicians that seem to get rich while
working for government wages that I wonder about.

The other thing you gotta wonder about is why they spend millions of

their own
money sometimes to get a job that pays about $150K.

IMHO there's a lot of that, but the ego stroking these Washington DC
guys get subjected to is incredible. Hollywood stars don't get schmoozed
like the most junior Congresscritter. Remember there are several hundred
lobbyists for every single elected rep, they all get huge staff support,
where ever they go they get special treatment, and everybody is
constantly begging them for favors.

Of course the opportunity to make money is there too. For example, Bill
Clinton came to the Presidency poorer than any President since Abe
Lincoln, and walked out with 2 or 3 million $$$... and that was while
under close surveillance by some of the finest legal and financial
talent in Washington ;)

Maria Teresa Thiersten Simoes-Ferreira Heinz Kerry was born in Mozambique,
the daughter of a Portuguese physician, was educated in Switzerland and
South Africa. Fluent in five languages, .


Only a Bush supporter would consider it a character flaw to be fluent in
five languages.

Many Americans who supported ultra-conservative Barry Goldwater back in 1964
became Democrats when his GOP was taken over by Nazi Fundamentalists. I've
been a card-carrying Republican for decades. Like all REAL conservatives, I
believe that presidents should obey the restrictions our Constitution lays
upon them. I believe that "no law" means "no law" - and certainly not one
that restricts essential medical research because some village idiots'
invisible friend says stem cells have rights. I find Bush and his
supporters little different from Osama Bi Ladin's crew - or Hitler's for
that matter. Both want the government to impose their religion on everybody
else! Did you forget how Hitler got elected or why the church helped Nazi
war criminals ... hmmmm?

A lot of hard-earned money ....


Christians put their hard earned money into collection plates thinking its
going to help the poor or to maintain their church; but instead the ivory
tower clerics who control their minds divert it to Sarah Brady's anti-gun
hysteria, to protect child molesting priests, and to far worse causes than
this "Tides" thing you mention.

In God We Trust


The god who suckered Abraham into cutting off the end off his penis? No
wonder you trust the 'Chainey' gang.

Works like this. I get elected and on the committee that oversees, say,
FBI. FBI is giving you problems so you call your congressman (me). My
secretary tells you I'm too busy to see you, let alone help you for weeks;
but that I have lunch with Ima Crook every day and recommends you call her.
Now it'd illegal for me to accept money to help you, it's part of my job,
but Ima is a registered lobbiest who makes her living "helping" folks like
you. She says she can get FBI off your back for $5000 cash (small bills).
You pay up and next day she talks to me and I have an aid phone your FBI
agent's boss and explain how angry this makes me just when I'm working on
his budget. Of course, Ima doesn't share a cent of your $5000 cash with
me - that'd be illegal (c:
