8. It's The Power Game
I've rarely met someone who says he has enough money or power...especially politicians and even more especially Repugnicans.

This isn't about how much money Chenney has or needs, this is a game of making the most, keeping the most and doing better than the next billionaire. It's a game played on many levels...in business, politics, media and now it's multi-national. This is the game that matters to the ilks of Chenney and the CONservative Rich. Individuals don't matter since they're never seen. And there's absolutely no accountability or responsibility required of these people.

This started in the Raygun days when thieves like North and Keating and Neil Bush and Casper "The Friendly" Weinberger walked free from criminal activities...and those that were caught quickly paid off and got to play another day. But that's nothing compared to the greedmongers of today. They not only saw how the others got away with it, they have to do better. This is especially the case when they've got so many of the public distracted, confused or just plain turned off.
