Republicans : Corrupt for 35+ years
Every Republican administration since Nixon has been massively corrupt and each of them should have been impeached and jailed.

NIxon. Just little Watergate. Doesnt seem like such a big deal anymore does it?
Reagan and Bush I. October surprise. Iran-Contra. Coups all over south america. Noriega and panama.
Bush II. Deep in the middle of it.

Compare these to Eisenhower, the last great republican president.
Well Ford was OK just not much to write home about.

2. Hey!-------Corruption Is a Qualifying Criterion for Repukeism
Along with greed, get-away-with-it, I-got-mine, rules-for-you-not-me, etc.

3. Please, let's remember these blasts from the past-
US Grant's administration was extremely corrupt-bribery, etc.

Rutherford B. Hayes only got into office because he made a deal with the racists in the South to withdraw troops, which meant the downfall of African American franchisement and the beginnings of institutional racism.

William McKinley was in the pocket of the Trusts, which is what they called big business back then.

Warren G. Harding's adminstration gave us Teapot Dome.
