For some reason, I find myself comparing the level of seriousness between the (alleged) Obama/Blago Senate seat sale (and Rezko stuff, and Ayers buddying, and etc) to the transgressions of once and former Vice President Spiro T Agnew.
The (alleged) Agnew "crimes" were serious, but truly teensy compared with (allegedly) selling a Senate seat, n'est ce pas?

Funny you say that. My mom and I were just talking about how we thought the Nixon, Agnew crimes were nothing compared to what we see now and the media just thinks Nixon was the criminal of all criminals!
