P.s. - To anyone innocently reading this and wonder why I don't throw in the towel. I have a personality quirk. There are times when I sink my teeth into something and I just can't let it go. I have been administering self-treatment and often use this forum to measure my progress. I have clearly relapsed. Because if Tully and DC give me three names I am going to obsess over the records of the Presidents they give to try and prove them wrong even though I know it won't make a difference. I often ask why, why was I born this way?

Sorry, ace.....I am not going to be an enabler and contribute to any further relapse.
Perhaps a humorous post will suffice...or at least bring the discussion to a close.

President Creates Cabinet-Level Position To Coordinate Scandals
In his State of the Union address to the nation last night, President Bush announced a new cabinet-level position to coordinate all current and future scandals facing his party.
"Tonight, by executive order, I am creating a permanent department with a vital mission: to ensure that the political scandals, underhanded dealings, and outright criminal activities of this administration are handled in a professional and orderly fashion," Bush said.
The centerpiece of Bush's plan is the Department Of Corruption, Bribery, And Incompetence, which will centralize duties now dispersed throughout the entire D.C.-area political establishment.
The Scandal Secretary will log all wiretaps and complaints of prisoner abuse, coordinate paid-propaganda efforts, eliminate redundant payoffs and bribes, oversee the appointment of unqualified political donors to head watchdog agencies, control all leaks and other high-level security breaches, and oversee the disappearance of Iraq reconstruction funds. He will also be responsible for issuing all official denials that laws have been broken.
"Many of the current scandals in Washington are crucial to the success of my priorities for the nation," Bush said. "The Department of Corruption will safeguard these important misdeeds."
