Corruption in both business and the government needs to be eliminated. It will scare the pants off the banks if we all join to fight corruption.

| 2. The GOP think being gay or liberal is corruption and that women aren't really completely people. |
|
They also think that the rich can do no wrong.
So no, we don't agree on corruption. (They're mostly for it)

get the red out

Anything that their churches scream about is "corruption"; but since their churches tell them to vote for the GOP there's no problem there. They like being told they can hate and discriminate, it's the "godly" thing to them.

STOP THIS PROPAGANDA
The GOP's is corruption personified, and they aren't stopping for you or for me!
Quit trying to co opt this Left movement which requests money out of government, and for government to do more about corporate greed!

| 5. No, I am a liberal, but a realist |

If we stop the corruption in the government a lot of the issues liberals care about will be helped dramatically. The tea party was started as a reaction against the bailouts, which were extremely corrupt. A lot of Republicans I know don't care about the social issues but do care about political corruption.

| 8. No. The tea party was started to give bigots a place to carry racist signs |

| 7. Please! Look up the word "corruption" in the Dictionary and there's a big "R" for Republican! |

Yes, there are members of the Democratic Party who are corrupt. There's no question about that. But the level and degree of corruption in the Republican Party, particularly with Nixon, Bush I and II and Reagan is unparalled. I'm sorry but Clinton's Whitewater deal wasn't even corruption; Al Gore's supposed Buddhist Temple donations; even William Jefferson's $50,000 in the freezer...all of these are NOTHING---NOTHING compared to what the modern day Republican Party has done.
The saddest part: We are witnessing the manifestation of this corruption which will take decades to address and resolved. They layed it at the feet of a black man and succeeded in having us blame him rather than what they did.
