Rep. Christopher Caruso, D-Bridgeport, co-chairman of the government administration and elections committee, which writes and oversees ethics law. Caruso said the letter doesn't violate state ethics laws or legislative mailing rules And I don't think he was advertising AT&T but himself, since he is up for reelection.

It is legal
That means little when we're talking about corruption under modern American law. Wiretapping citizens without a warrant will soon be legal. Bribing public officials is essentially legal if you play your cards right. Assigning lobbyists from industry to head key positions overseeing industries they represent is perfectly legal. Killing Iraqi civilians if you are an outsourced security contractor is legal. The list is endless.

He's doing both, obviously. |

He's doing both, obviously. Well, Karl, America had a chance to put Dennis "UFO" Kucinich in-charge and didn't. Him and his alien brotherhood could have fixed it all.
By the way, Iraq is about oil. So, a few hundred thousand Iraqis die in mass bombings. What's the problem? We need cheap oil so GM and Ford don't go bankrupt because their SUVs make them money. We can't let Honda's great mileage cars just take over without a war or two. Finland looks like they need an a@@ kicking about now.
And, considering Hillary & Bill Clinton have made millions from lobbying efforts (Bill did), Democrats are in on it too. Democrats have never refused to fund the war. Barack Obama either doesn't vote against it or just doesn't vote.
Bush had made some mistakes. It happens. He learns from his mistakes by never acknowledging them and moving on. Just because the world is united against us doesn't mean anything. Bush has plans to deal with that by uniting the world against China over Tibet. Bush clearly had this in mind when he invaded Iraq. Just wait till the Olympics in China and the heat will go to them. He's smart. His strategery is strong. Once everyone hates China, all this too shall pass. And, if it all fails, Dick Cheney shoots another lawyer in the face.
