The Democrats must be having serious ethics issues when the AP writes about the problem. Larry Margasak provides the long list of the ethically challenged Democrats in Washington just during the last 2 months.
He mentions Burris, Murtha, Blagojevich, Rangel, Daschle, Killefer, Geithner, Richardson and Lynn. That's quite a long list for just a short period of time.
From my perspective, the problem appears not to be a Democratic problem any more than the prior issues were a Republican issue. The real problem results from far too much power over far too much money being given to individuals in Washington.
Rather than saying the Democrats are corrupt, we need to change how Washington does business to reduce the temptations of the huge sums of money involved. This suggests the need for a flat tax with no deductions to eliminate legislation creating tax loopholes. It requires the elimination of earmarks.
