How do the millions of Americans that resent their freedom being stolen express their anger? How do the American people express their anger about the political hacks that have stolen our government? How do the American people express their rage about the members of this Congress who have become dictators? How does the American people express their rage at the in-your-face arrogance of members of Congress who betray our heritage and spit on our Constitution? Personally, I can’t find words reprehensible enough.

You can’t get much more transparent than the deals they’ve given Landrieu and Nelson.
However, that 1 AM vote makes me think Reid and Pelosi are they that they and their Bills will turn to smoke if exposed to sunlight. Who’s the Master and who’s Renfro in this little play?
Political Corruption in the United States and around the Globe
From outright vote-buying to selling preferential access, corruption of the political process has a corrosive effect on democracies around the world. Policymakers in the United States and around the world have employed legal regimes and oversight mechanisms to ensure free and fair elections and impartial conduct in public office, but most of the efforts have been problematic. Two essential elements of reform—transparency and disclosure—are not widespread, and where they are, attempts to circumvent them are raising concerns.
Kleptocracy (or sometimes Cleptocracy) (root: Klepto+cracy) is a form of government. It means literally "rule by thieves". It is the end-point of political corruption, where no pretence of honesty remains, and the government of a country exists solely to enrich its rulers and to perpetuate their rule. Most kleptocracies are dictatorships or some other autocratic form of government because other forms of government make theft more difficult to accomplish and conceal. Kleptocrats often use money laundering and anonymous banking as a way of protecting and concealing their ill-gotten gains.
