Judicial Watch has named the top ten most corrupt politicians of 2009. Senator John Ensign (R-NV) was the only Republican named. Sen. Ensign stands accused of misusing his public office (and taxpayer resources) to cover up his sexual shenanigans. Judicial Watch has the details of why each politician has earned this ignominious honor.
Here is a complete list of the names in alphabetic order:
1. Senator Christopher Dodd (D-CT)
2. Senator John Ensign (R-NV)
3. Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA)
4. Secretary of Treasury Timothy Geithner
5. Attorney General Eric Holder
6. Rep. Jesse Jackson, Jr. (D-IL)/ Senator Roland Burris (D-IL)
7. President Barack Obama
8. Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA)
9. Rep. John Murtha (D-PA) and the rest of the PMA Seven
10. Rep. Charles Rangel (D-NY)
The above list is alphabetic. Post a comment telling your top choice for "Most Corrupt Politician of 2009" and why.
There are so many corrupt politicians this year. The choice is difficult. I vote for Rep. Charles Rangel(D-NY). How can you be Ways and Means Chairman and our nations chief tax writer while failing to report $1.3 million in income? That is outrageous. http://www.bluegrasspundit.com/2009/08/ways-and-means-chairman-charlie-rangel.html
ReplyDeleteI think they as well as other Obama appointments are equally corrupt but I think I will go with Chris Dodd; in my opinion he is a despicable liar, owning stock in insurance companies and wife on board of so many insurance companies, and many other unhanded means of building his personal wealth. But I simply can not mention how duplicitus is our AG Eric Holder who worked for a well known law firm making millions of dollars defending terrorist accused of terrorist acts agains the US. I pretty much hate them all for what they do to our country while accumulating wealth from tax payers.
ReplyDeleteIt's really hard to choose from such a select group, but I have to cast my vote for our illustrious President, simply because the power of his position sets the tone for the rest of the crooks.
ReplyDeleteI vote for Barack Obama for promising things to certain people for their vote on healthcare. He gave Nelson a pass for his state on Medicaid and the lady from Louisiana got some goodies too. The labor unions were promised exemption from taxes on the cadillac plans. These are just a few that we KNOW about.
