He stepped out because he's crook and the public sees it.
How many more glitches in these nominees (seated and not seated) will we find down the road?
Change, huh?
Yea buddy! Real change.

Even when a guy does the right thing and steps down you right wing cry babies are still picking at him

Daschle did do the right thing, he stepped down after it was found out he was a liar! Let's see if Obama has the same integrity?

hypocritexposer said:Why is it the Nominee's responsibility to admit they don't meet the ethical standards set by the President, and stand down?
Shouldn't the President enforce his own standards, and be responsible for them himself? If he doesn't, what does that say about him and his integrety?
I think Obama is overwhelmed and does not know when to take a stand and when to pay his political debts.

reader (the Second) said:Cheney himself was the original revolving door. From Govt to private sector where he got rich using his govt connections and then back to Govt where he enriched the company he was an executive in and cushioned a soft landing spot for himself. I could Google any number of senior Bush people and find tax problems or revolving door behavior and lobbyist. The top return however was about Cheney's son-in-law...
I'm not saying this behavior is right. I'm saying where were all of you staunch defenders of ethics during the administration of your beloved Bush? :lol: :lol: :lol:
April 2005 President George Bush has nominated the Vice-President's son-in-law, Philip Perry, as general counsel of the Homeland Security Department, where he would oversee 1500 lawyers who work on legal matters like Coast Guard maritime laws and immigration.
The nomination comes after Elizabeth Cheney, the Vice-President's daughter and Mr Perry's wife, was appointed last month by the Secretary of State, Condoleezza Rice, as the second-ranking US diplomat for the Middle East.
Mr Perry faces a confirmation hearing in the Senate.
Mr Perry is leaving Latham & Watkins, a law firm where he was a partner and a lobbyist for the weapons firm Lockheed Martin, one of the top 10 contractors for the domestic security department.
Before joining Latham & Watkins, Mr Perry was general counsel of the White House Office of Management and Budget and, before that, acting associate attorney-general at the Justice Department.
In 2000 Mr Perry worked on the Bush-Cheney presidential transition team and was an adviser to Mr Cheney as he prepared for the vice-presidential debates.

Lockheed Martin and partners have won hundreds of millions of dollars worth of commitments in the past two years for its products and services, including a contract to train airport security screeners for the Transportation Security Administration and to help build Coast Guard cutters and helicopters.

We took your message to heart! This is about the future, and the ability to question those that are in charge.
You have preached it, but you haven't learned it!
That's BS and you know it. You would have defended any Republican lobbyist or candidate with a skeleton in the closet with your last breath.
