Allegedly closeted congressman Duke Cunningham, a California Republican who pleaded guilty Nov. 28 to taking $2.4 million in bribes - including a yacht, a Rolls Royce and a 19th Century Louis-Philippe can - from a defense contractor, wore a wire at some point during the short interval between the moment he began cooperating with the feds and the announcement of his guilty plea on Nov. 28.
According to sources, the GOP is freaking out. Not only do they have to contend with sleaze lobbyist Jack Abramhoff ratting them out, but now "Duke" may be a turncoat who betrayed them by taping their conversations.
Aren't these he guys who were elected by values voters? Christian conservatives want to be taken seriously, but they are the only people in America stupid enough to look to politicians for their moral guides.

The GOP is finally getting a taste of their own sleezy, corrupt, morally bankrupt, ruthless, back-stabbing medicine. It's KARMA time! "The mills of the gods grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly small." Sextus Empiricus (Greek philosopher) Gary (NJ)

I understand the Southern Baptist Convention is considering changing it's name---supposedly to be more inclusive of their international influence and lobbying power.I suggest they change it to one of the following: American Society of Secret Evanelical SeductionS (ASSES) or Country Cousins for Contol of Congress (CCCC) OR how about The Dichotomous Dictatorship of Dickheads! THe Holier Than Thou Holding the Humble Hostage; or my personal favorite: The Santimonious Society of Southern Comfort for People Who Cant Think for Themselves

Larry King had a Southern Baptist pastor on his show October 18 who personified the right wing divisive agenda based on ignorance and a complete lack of critical thinking ability. The comments he made were ridiculously simplistic and indicative of his ostrich position in the real world. Forget this guy!
