Politicians We No Longer Need



Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) has published its picks for 2009 "Ten Most Wanted Corrupt Politicians of 2009", as named by Judicial Watch.
Senators Dodd and Ensign lead the alphabetically listed ten elected and appointed officials, followed by Representative Barney Franks and Secretary of the Treasury Timothy Geitner. Political cronyism, misappropriation, gross tax evasion, abuse of privilege and downright greed are among the crimes and injustices committed often in the name of yet always against the American people by those it is bred and expected to trust, a trust that seems
to be in ever-increasing jeopardy.
(Yes, Nancy's in there, too. How could she not be?)
The rest of the list from CREW can be seen here, as well as the list of the 15 most corrupt members of the U.S. Congress.
Democrats lead the numbers by a slight margin (7-9).
John Murtha's death did not serve to remove him from the list.

All the people on this list are the true terrorist. They dont use bullets or bombs but they are truly destine and determined to destroy America and it's Constitution. There is no just reason why they shouldn't be arrested, charged and prosecuted for the terrorist acts they are committing.

Why are these people still out doing what they do? It's simple: they're protected by lots of other people who do the same things, but in less obvious ways. This list is only of the top offenders; the list should go on and on to call all of them out from their hiding places.

They don't deserve to be in office. But it's us who put them there, some of them again and again and again. How stupid, as a people, are we?

Don't you people get it. If we stopped falling for the "he's a socialist" and "he's a warmongering biblethumper" crap that comes from both sides, we would stop electing people who only specialize in winning elections. Stop all the terrorists/unamerican name calling and focus on the issues. Stop getting duped by every Swift Boat ad that you see.
