Rahm Emanuel, a senior Democratic leader, in a speech this week at the Brookings Institution, will tie together a long series of Bush administration scandals, controversies and missteps into what he argues is a campaign to turn the government into an appendage of the Republican Party.
"The U.S. Attorney scandal will be to public corruption what Hurricane Katrina was to incompetence in the Bush Administration," he plans to say Wednesday.
We cannot go back and undo the damage that has been done but we are entitled to the truth. It seems that investigations are everywhere now. Dennis J. Kucinich has prepared articles of impeachment against Cheney. The only problem with that is if he were gone Bush would have to run the show alone and it could be even worse.
A lot of what Bush has done was done in the past on a smaller scale. What sets Bush apart is that he has vastly expanded the role of partisan politics and corruption. It has become a way of life for his administration. They constantly alleged wrong doing by Clinton but none of it was true except for the Monica affair. The knew their allegations were not true but made them anyway. How stunningly hypocritical it is for them to defend the deeply corrupt Bush administration.
