Savavian found guilty on 4 counts of obstruction, making false statements

WASHINGTON - A jury Tuesday convicted a former Bush administration official of four counts of lying and obstructing justice in the first trial to be held in connection with the influence-peddling scandal of lobbyist Jack Abramoff.

On the fifth day of deliberations, the jury found David Safavian — a former chief of staff at the General Services Administration — guilty of four of five counts of lying and obstructing justice.

I dont want them to begin, i'd rather them clean up their mess. Look either Bush's people get defamed and then he pardons them, or we get Cheney as a president. Lose lose. Democrats cheer at these convictions, but its not like they're going to do anything with the political gain.
 
Ahhh, I love it when the republicans ignore a thread like this. LOL

In all fairness, the republicans have not cornered the market on corruption. The dems are just as bad. The pendulum is merely swinging to the right at this point in time.

I would remind you all of the Clinton administration and all the scandals surrounding him.

It's not a party thang. It's a politician thang.

Most of them are so crooked they have to screw their shoes on in the morning.

Hee hee hee Captain America, my problem is that the republicans claimed that they would be better than the democrats at running Congress. Guess what? They lied.

Bush claimed he was going to restore integrity, or something like that, to the White House. Yeah right.

When people claim to be better than others and then prove otherwise, that is what I relish in.
 
And no republican responds to this conviction. I absolutely LOVE it!!
