Renzi and Republicans - WSJ.com

Renzi and Republicans - WSJ.com

Such a sad story--but becoming more commonplace. I could list page upon page of individually corrupt public officials. Renzi isn't the only corrupt member of Congress. Look at the earmarks--only 13 members of the 435 members in the house didn't obtain an earmark in the last session of Congress. In recent reports in the Seattle Times, at three members of the House of Representatives and one Senator received campaign contributions from those companies benefitting from the earmark. This is uncontrolled corruption--which is one of the reasons government doesn't work. Jim
