If you thought that president-elect OBAAMA was going to waltz into the White House you were sadly mistaken. It seems that he is being chipped away from his support base even before his first day on the job. Now another state Governor finds himself embroiled in a money scandal. The Mexican governor of New Mexico (where else?!?) BILL RICHARDSON has withdrawn his name from consideration of the cabinet position in the new administration because of a Federal investigation into the contracts issued by his state to a campaign supporter.
The problem that I have seen with Governor BLAGOJEVICH and now Governor RICHARDSON is that neither of them are working on big money kickbacks. A million dollars is chump change compared to the hunderds of billions that are being sent to the banking institutions to keep them happy. The governors are selling themselves out for less than pennies on the dollar. Even the automakers are asking for upwards of fifty billions dollars to rescue their flailing enterprises and these toupee topped governors are looking like boxcar hobos. If our culture still wore hats these dudes would have them in their hands turned upside down.
All of these scandals make me nervous to wonder what skeletons OBAAMA has buried in his closet. We all know that he still puffs on the squares. And we have all heard the jailhouse stories about what some men will do when they have been denied a cigarette for a certain amount of time.
*shudders at the thought*
