See no ethics, hear no ethics, speak a *lot* of ethics!

November 6th, 2005 · No Comments

Wouldn’t you love to eavesdrop on those brand new, mandatory ethics lectures for White House officials?

Gee, this so reminds me of the NH Republican Party’s eight-point “Code of Ethics,” which they invented right after getting caught jamming Democrats’ phones in 2002 –illegal behavior which, we learn in 2005, was financed by Tom DeLay and Jack Abramoff.

I hope Bush will save some of my Federal tax dollars by brushing off the NH Republican code for his own team’s use. It sounds like exactly what he’s looking for.

You see, very conveniently, the NH Republican Code of Ethics–while forbidding “false or misleading attacks” and “any activity which would corrupt or degrade” the political process–didn’t obligate them to uncover or punish anyone’s past mistakes or crimes–or even to answer questions truthfully.
