The party that doesn't even know what is is, is going to rebuild themselves into the party of accountability? Lol. Grow up moron, how many times are you going to let the filthy lying democrats get away with lying to you personally? Or is it, that you are part of the apparatus? So, how does this new form of word abuse, somehow link Bush to the Catholic Church scandal, that is the real question. It can't it won't it is an absurd and risky scheme, one that is certain to blow up the apparatus itself. - A message from the top -- A new poll and analysis from the Democracy Corps, a group founded by Democrat consultants Stan Greenberg, Bob Shrum and James Carville, says that accountability, "the word and the value," is "emerging as a central explanatory idea for what people are feeling as they watch unfolding events in diverse areas." Linking the collapse of the Enron energy company, the pedophilia scandal inside the American Catholic Church and, by implication, the recent imbroglio over what if anything the Bush administration may have known about the Sept. 11 terror attack before it happened, the memo says: "All of that has come together in a widely shared sense that many in powerful positions operate irresponsibly, hurt people, and pay no price. They are not held accountable." "Accountability, we shall see, is the vehicle for Democrats to talk about these abuses -- centered on certain big corporations and their political supporters -- who have given free rein to this conduct and who have allowed bad civic behavior to go unpunished." The other dominant themes the three see shaping the elections this fall are: Rising health care costs; the protection of pensions and 401 (k) plans; the Social Security trust fund; and fiscal responsibility. newsalert.com
