Of course. Its always better to catch a crook before he takes office. That said, I have to wonder who is vetting these people...assuming that anyone is.

One thing is for certain. We've found out why the Democratic 'leadership' supports higher taxes. Apparently, they have no intention of paying theirs.

There is an already existing topic on this subject here.

Please contribute any further questions and/or comments to the above linked thread.
