aren't the (fiscally responsible) Republicans in charge of Congress?

How can Democrats be doing all of this?

Yet..."While senators and congressmen hyperventilate over accounting scandals in a handful of big corporations, the U.S. government itself squanders, wastes, loses, and misappropriates hundreds of billions without a blush." Well, damn...who's fault is this?


Sidenote: (not that I care)

Losing money in a political sinkhole is not illegal for corporate CEO or politican.

Lying about losing money is illegal for corporate CEO's (and it should be for politicians).
