My buddies, huh? Wow, if I’d known your vote was so easily bought, I’d have been on this months ago. They tell me all the Disney names are already used, so you’ll have to wait for next election cycle.

I just thought fraud was a great place to toss in a little faux campaigning. I’ve got the backing of the county sheriff, though, because he told me I was a square shooter. John Wayne woulda been proud!

That would be great Conrad. And if you do, maybe send some of those ACORN people by so I can register and vote for you out there.

As a School Board candidate in California, I promise to clean up ALL this corruption in Minnesota! I’m going to square up the economy, too. And, while I’m at it…

An interesting story – when people slip past the checks and balances – in the name of greed. Thanks GL!

Leaders in our country do so daily with lies we hear, and we do so daily when we fail to check our own integrity and whistle blow the dishonesty we meet.

Not an easy challenge for the rest of us – but it’s the only way to reclaim all we are losing in the race for riches.

Wow. Just… wow!

I’m reminded of a line from old movie, “The Flim-Flam Man”. George C. Scott played a conman who, when asked by his new protege why his schemes always seemed to work, even though they sounded patently ridiculous, replied, “Well, you can’t cheat an honest man.”

I’m afraid in many cases (maybe not AlL cases), greed is a two-way street. Remember “The Sting”?
