Madoff is evil and corrupt but not as evil and corrupt as Dick Cheney

¿Quién es más malvado?

We live in an era of heartless, revolting dishonesty, writes Pat Murphy in Sun Valley, Idaho’s Idaho Mountain Express:

Bernard Madoff, the New Yorker who fleeced investors of $50 billion with heartless precision, and Vice President Dick Cheney, a principal architect of America’s ruin as an envied world leader and engineer of calculated abuse of power, share the same amoral lack of ethics except for one distinguishing fact.    Madoff forlornly admits his revolting dishonesty and theft of investments from philanthropists, friends, foundations and celebrities.

However, right up to the last days of his dark reign, Cheney not only refuses to admit his deceit, but boasts that kidnapping and torture of terror suspects, wiretapping Americans, ignoring Congress, lying to the public, launching a war on fraudulent grounds, alienating overseas allies, pandering to loony religious agendas and legislating for the wealthy were collectively beneficial to Americans.

I won’t quibble with anyone about the mendacity of Darth Cheney, but I’m wondering if Madoff’s reported admission of malfeasance—- an acute attack of transient mensch manifestation syndrome?—really makes him any less of a disgrace.

And I’m thinking: Not so much.

I only hope that Dick Cheney, George Bush, and the rest of the gang (including all of the corrupt CEO’s) that have caused the hardships in America will be tried and held responsible for their many crimes.  We were a strong Nation.  It’s time we clean house and take our Country back.

The people cannot let these criminals go free with out punishment.  They have rubbed our noses in their evil use of power.  Now it is out turn to show them that wrong is wrong, and if our congress doesn’t do anything then it is time for them to go also.

I am totally for the nation of Israel and have Jewish friends that would so ashamed of you. How can you tell such blatent lies. You have your facts all wrong and what is worse you know it. Just another liberal left wing gouge at those who are honest and who uphold the rights of this country. Most of you would not even be alive today or have a business today if it were not for Republicans such as Mr. Cheney and George Bush. You are corrupt and will tell any lie to support your evil socialistic propoganda.
