Corruption in Government is Republican Scandal

Josh Marshall has a good explanation of why the "bi-partisan" scandal meme is wrong:

The Duke Cunningham scandal is a Republican scandal, which we'll soon see spreads into the Rumsfeld Defense Department. The Abramoff scandal tracks into the Interior Department and the GSA.

Then there's Tom DeLay, remember him, former House Majority Leader, now under indictment in Texas. Set aside that he's also implicated in the Abramoff scandal and quite probably the Duke Cunningham scandal as well. And then in the other body you've got Sen. Bill Frist who is at the center of a criminal investigation into his stock sales. ....
Two Republican members of Congress are under indictment.

    Still waiting for the country to wake up and throw out both these self serving entities. Major political parties, corruption is thy middle name. IMO, Dems are only about 10% less corrupt.
