Jesse Helms and Mitch McConnell

Helms paid his dues by earmarking for the benefit of his friends and supporters in North Carolina. No one said he was stupid politician. The poor, uneducated voters of North Carolina can be held accountable for his obstructionist tactics just like the poor, uneducated voters of Kentucky are responsible for the miserable record of Mitch McConnell. The Democrats have had their share of crooks,but they were just ordinary thieves, not the deluxe variety the Republicans offer us. Helms, and McConnell today, have been party to the greatest theft of wealth in the history of the world- the blank check given to the Pentagon for the last 8 years. All voters in America should offer an apology to the rest of the world for bringing this monstrosity of an administration into existence. Helms is dead, Bush is a lame duck that is disliked by more Americans than any other politician ever and Cheney runs a close second. Luckily, we only have a few more months to endure these people and then the toilet flushes. Even Bob Bahr would be an improvement.
