no problem.
I think you find it difficult to find anyone (other those who benefit from corruption) that will defend political corruption.
The question is do we see all politicians the same?
Do we see ALL Liberal party politicians as equal in the corruption scandal? Do we see the other parties as being corrupt?
Personally, I think there will always be some form of corruption in government. The key is to what extent will it exist. To me, Gomery is refreshing... perverse as that may sound. It shows that corruption can be discovered and ferreted out.
What scares me more is the sort of corruption that never gets discovered or that is discovered but spun out of existence.
Of course the reverse is also true. A lot of time can be wasted trying to find corruption that doesn't exist. This is usually in an effort to score political points. This is almost as bad a corruption itself.
