Politicians, like diapers, need to be changed regularly and often. And for the same reason.

Embezzlement: it's just a series of frauds.

This is the man that yelled "No" at the Senate because they weren't willing to spend $100 million dollars on a bridge for 50 people? And the same gentleman who refused to swear in oil executives at a Senate hearing? And has been attempting to drill oil out of national parks?

You are telling me this guy isn't a shining moral exemplar?

I just don't know who to trust anymore.
