how do we forget about things like abscam? it was shocking; the audacity of the public officials involved and yet we rarely reference it. prince sang about it for gods sake!
when john murtha died i didnt see one word written about his involvement in abscam. selective memory? omitted on purpose?
have the crooks in politics just gotten more sophisticated and rendered the fbi and other law enforcement agencies useless with laws and oversight committees to put the fear of god or nancy pelosi in them? and then congress makes more laws to help themselves get away with breaking other laws? i wouldnt doubt it. the government cannot afford to hire the best in the business so they will always be beat by the best in the business.
