Have all in government be investigated for any inappropriate monetary spending of taxpayer money

Why Is This Idea Important?: We need to weed out the dead wood and the bad seeds and get some new blood in Washington. I suggest all have term limits, including supreme court justices.

I'm sorry, but this administration so far has become the most unethical and corrupt I've seen or read about in history (aside from Nixon). I am embarrassed that my President would hire white collar criminals to serve in his cabinet and allow the Speaker of the House to lie about our national intelligence agency without asking her to step down like he asked a private business CEO to do. I have seen one democrat after another be called out for not paying their taxes or hiding money, lying about money received from certain groups and organizations, etc. You have Chris Dodd putting into the stimulus that big wigs on Wallstreet can get bonuses after the government forced the taxpayers to give them billions and then he lied about it until being caught. You have Barney Frank lying about his role in the economic collapse with Fannie and Freddie. You have Obey getting billions in the stimulus for his son who is in national forestry. This is getting to be too much for the American people.

    What's good for the goose is good for the gander. Let's investigate Bush and Cheney and all their war crimes first and make sure they get punished. Let's re-investigate 9/11 and get the truth out there to the public instead of the whitewashed "official" version that stinks to high heaven. Let's take care of all the corruption and the greedy crooked bankers who have fleeced the American people, and the predators in our own government whose sexual misconduct far supersedes the marital indiscretion of Bill Clinton. Let's get our country back on track and restore our rights and our privacy and stop spying on Americans, just because they don't agree with some government official's agenda.

    And let's hope that some of you "blind" folks will have your eyes opened so that you will be able to see that all is not as simple as you think. Threats are made to people in Washington and deals are cut for various reasons. Just think back to the fact that those anthrax-laced letters were sent to Democratic Senators at the time when Bush was forcing the Patriot Act and his illegal wire-tapping down Congress's throat. Let's not forget that the words "martial law" were brought up when Bush was pushing for the bailout of his rich banker buddies. And let's not be so stupid as to think there weren't corrupt people in the past administration because our government was mostly corrupt, starting at the top with the Supreme Court handing the presidency to Bush.

    As a Republican, let me say: It's NOT JUST THE DEMOCRATS! We BOTH need to police our own.

    What about Haliburton and all the other companies owned by Repubs that made BILLIONS off of military contracts. Before the Bush administration and the Iraq war, Haliburton was on the verge of bankruptcy. Then low and behold! The company in whom Cheney once was CEO managed to get billions of no bid contracts. They and their subsidary charged us for serving meals to marines that didn't exist, built showers that had such bad wiring that over 100 soldiers were electrocuted, and I believe a couple died. They gave poisened water to the troops and their men raped a few women and then laws were pushed thru to prevent prosecution under either US or Iraqi law.

    Then last year to avoid investigation Haliburton moved its corporate headquaters to Dubai.
