Morons like you have no room to complain about over the top nonsense like Beck's...not after what was said about Bush, Cheney, et al. for the last eight years. You're a dumbass and a hypocrite to boot. J.

SCANDALOUS "There was a time when we would have called it a scandal," Newt Gingrich writes at www.humanevents.com. "In 1921, oil tycoon Harry Sinclair gave several prize head of cattle and around $269,000 to President Harding's secretary of the Interior, Albert Fall. "In return, Sinclair got the exclusive rights to drill in an oil field in Wyoming. Sinclair's no-bid contract became the Teapot Dome scandal, the most notorious example of political corruption in America prior to Watergate," Mr. Gingrich said. "Between 2000 and 2008, the United Auto Workers (UAW) union gave $23,675,562 to the Democratic Party and its candidates. In 2008 alone, the UAW gave $4,161,567 to the Democratic Party, including Barack Obama. "In return, the UAW received 55 percent of Chrysler and 17.5 percent of GM, plus billions of dollars. "But nobody's calling this a scandal. It's time we start."
