Politics And Money
Frank J. puts the Abramoff story in perspective:
I don't get this whole Abramoff scandal. First, it doesn't involve shooting or explosions, so it's boring. Second, politicians have been using their power to illegally get money since forever. George Washington had the military rob a bank to test out his executive powers, killing four. Even Judas of Iscariot, a follower of Jesus, used his position of power to get thirty pieces of silver.
So everyone just chill, yo.
Works for me.
