If you run the numbers, you will find that corruption in DC has pretty much run evenly through party lines.
Regardless of which party is worse (you have your opinion, I have mine), I think we can both agree that this high level of political corruption, of all places, in our national capital is unacceptable?
Yes, a year ago we needed a change, but not a change for worse, which is what we got. This past year has just been "politics as usual" in Washington, same old same old, only worse than ever. And now, a year later, the citizens are REALLY demanding change --- not "yes we can", but "yes we are".

"Political corruption" has been in Washington for ages. People say they are fed up and their solution is to head to the polls and elect someone just like the person they are fed up with.
Also, as far as if the "change is worst or better", you are right....... (you have your opinion, I have mine).

"were charged for offering to pay a 20% commission.."
Hmmm Since when are you not allowed to pay commission to a sales broker?
Wonder if I can get an indictment against every real estate agent who ever worked a deal?
Something sounds fishy. Either it was a poorly written article leaving out key details or this is a political witch hunt.

Don't think offering the 20% commission was the big deal, it was the "fact" that they thogught they were offering this deal to the defense minister for an African country.
Either way the whacked out media will turn this against hunters in the end.
Sad.
