	Articles - Political scandals of the United States (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Another approach might be to categorize American political scandals by the nature of the alleged wrongdoing (separating "private immorality" scandals, where possible, from graft, bribery, and other abuse of the public trust; or separating misconduct that led to criminal indictment, from non-criminal matters).
		An example of this might be the Tailhook scandal, which was generally regarded as a military, rather than a political scandal.
		A frequent element of major political scandals is stonewalling, and often a cover-up is involved, which in some cases can even lead to formal criminal charges of obstruction of justice or perjury.

	The Liquid List
		The amazing thing about this laundry list of demands is that they don't merely address things this administration doesn't like (climate change, nuclear disaramament), the list also goes after perfectly innocuous things.
		The worst part is that the regular ruse employed by UN haters on the right is that the organization is somehow toothless because it is paralyzed by vetoes, and can't act in the face of terrible tragedies like...genocide.
		What we're saying with this staggering list of editorial changes is that we don't really care about helping make the UN a better tool to serve all the nations and ourselves in the future.

		For political junkies on the East Coast, curling up with Karl Rove, Sid Blumenthal and Ray Strother on the weekend might be a pretty good substitute for firing up the old grill and getting those tomatoes planted.
		It is a powerful reminder just how much emphasis was put on the scandals from Whitewater to Lewinsky and how few words have been written on the other side, either by partisans or by the press.
		Political consultant Ray Strother’s memoir “Falling Up: How A Redneck Helped Invent Political Consulting"” is a wonderful collection of yarns about the rise of political consultants and his own life and times in Democratic politics.
