President Obama promised, HE PROMISED, the most ethical, transparent administration in history. Just as Bill Clinton did before him. We also had such "promises" from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi - that her Congress was going to be different from previous congresses.
So let's look at some of the president's cabinet appointments:
Tim Geitner for Secretary of the Treasury; Didn't pay taxes for several years, used his kids camp attendance as a business write off,...
Tom Daschle for HHS withdrew his nomination because of tax issues.
Hillary Clinton for Secretary of State - many conflicts of interest because her husband has accepted millions of dollars from Arab countries for his foundation, library,....
Eric Holder for Attorney General - apologizes for "poor judgement" in signing off on the Marc Rich pardon, and for the pardons of FALN terrorists.
Majority Leader Harry Reid (D) described the Geitner tax problem as a "hiccup."
It seems that Democrat scandals, tax evasion, conflicts of interest,.... can be whitewashed by the elite media and political power brokers as honest mistakes or hiccups, while Republicans would have be driven out of town for much lesser offenses.
