Gosh, I hate having to eat my words, especially when I make a really stupid mistake in public. But when it comes to having a verbal feast stretched out wide before one, you can't beat the adults in the current administration.

Be it high officials in Homeland Security soliciting children for sex and providing explicit pornography to a child - who turned out to be the police - or be it folks in line for nomination to high courts who are just a little light-fingered - or . . .

The guy worked for Homeland Security, for goodness sake. Couldn't they have figured out that he had ISSUES? These are the guys "guarding" us?

And can't they pay their folks enough that they don't need to shoplift? Or maybe everyone is just playing follow the dear leader. If DL can write himself out of the constitution and the law, surely his minions can do the same.

Just what is it with these publically hyper-moralistic types?

Who knew that Mission Accomplished would so quickly become a joke? Too bad Rummy is being kept stuffed in a closet somewhere. Every word from his mouth was a gem. And I haven't even said a word about Bushisms . . . until now when I said nine of them.

And all this - and more, much, much more - without even getting into the real money scandals that are slowly oozing out of the swamp of filthy muck that is this administration.

When it comes to behavior you want to keep private, bad judgment made oh so public, words coming back to haunt one, this is one administration with really, really bad karma. Of for the "Christians" in the administration: Sow the Wind, Reap the Whirlwind. Hosea 8:1-14

So give that karmic wheel a few more turns. Put on your seer's hat. What is next?

It should be child's play.

Too true.

In the Wallace post this morning, 54cermak and I had a little back and forth about the theocrats being more of a means to an end for the NeoCons to coalesce their power than true religious inspiration for their policies. That would certainly help explain the moral failings of an awful lot of Administration officials.

Still, I have a very hard time with the hypocrisy of the religious right and their minions calling for the death of Supreme Court justices yet turning a blind eye to pedophiles and thieves at the highest levels of government.

I think the danger of the religious right is that they may be a means to an end for the current bunch, but as that bunch uses the theocrats, it also grows the theocrat base meaning that their power will only increase. Left unchecked, I think there will be a major day of reckoning down the line between the theocrats and corpratists and the loser will be everyone else.

Tonight commuting home I heard Randi Rhodes list people of this ilk who had engaged in kiddy porn, sex with kids, legal violations, breaches of trust, on and on. Incredible. I heard about 20 minutes of it and she was already into it when I started and still going when I turned the car off.

Has it always been this way? Or are these folks special?

Special? Heh. That's one way of looking at it. /snark

I think it's more of a culture within the White House that encourages a testosterone-fueled aggressive ambition and lawless entitlement that insulates the "special" ones from any sense of personal responsibility for ones behavior or adherence to a moral code that requires following the rules.

All traits that Dear Leader certainly exemplifies.
