2. Every time they are complicit in his misdeeds as they are now
it is one more thing to hold over them. They have been complicit from day one, what with his huge tax cuts for the wealthy that many Democrats voted for and IWR and torture and spying on Americans without warrant. All the Democratic leaders were indeed notified of these issues and yet they went along with them..It is too damn late for them to start bucking the Administration now. They are every bit as guilty as Bush* and Cheney.

3. Right; they are complicit and probably profiting nicely
That, and probably threats and blackmail from the goons in charge.

Onward to more hearings, more reports of wrong-doing, and than doing nothing.

4. I Hear On This Board Quite A Bit The References Like You Intimated........
that they are probably profiting nicely. I guess I'm naive or something - but how would 'they profit nicely'? I'm not trying to be funny - but are they getting $ under the table? Are they putting it in off-shore accounts?

How do they profit? How do they hide it if they do profit?
