Cheney's corruption
So far ENRON has squeezed about $1.3 billion out of the Californians. Bush has promised about twice that much to his religious contributors. Nobody else even comes close. The scale is un-Presidented.

You're right dave, Clinton's failings do not even compare to Cheney's corruption. After all, they are mostly of a personal nature. They are on a different scale entirely from Cheney's blatant, constant, tireless, cynical use of his government connections and insider knowledge to steer hundreds of millions of dollars, unfair competitive advantage, tax breaks, exclusive foreign contracts, to his former employer. Who was it he was working for? No, Cheney was never a draft dodger, he is simply a kingpin in the incremental takeover of the government by corporate interests and the corresponding erosion of ALL our rights.
