We are witnessing the emergence of a new government dictatorship. History tell us that rampant corruption, fed by cronyism, is the nuts and bolts of dictatorships. Dictatorships are almost always governed by groups of friends and associates who appoint each other to government positions and use governmental power and authority to protect their friends from accountability.

MOMENTS TO REMEMBER COURTESY OF DODD

> Dodd's sweet deals from Countrywide Morgtage;

> a castle in Ireland payoff for arranging a presidential pardon;

> Dodd in Iowa to raise million dollar contributions (bribes) from Wall Street suckups;

> lying about his role in the AIG bonuses;

> his parasitic wife making big bucks as board member for Pharma and Health Care Corporations;

> Dodd's (gag) leadership as Chairman of Senate Banking Committee, as the economy did a Great Depression melt down.

What is the money trail or story-line leading up to the ownership of the Irish castle. I know it is on an island.

This Dodd fellow has modest means. Did the funding come from his lobbyist-spouse?
