Bush Crony Jobs… Dot Com!
Ah, someone with a sense of timing and a sense of humor! How good is this?
Now, all I ask is take it to the next level. Whoever put this together, if you have the time or inclination, create a database of all appointable government positions and track and update appointments with the details of each individual’s background, their known relationships to the power structure of the time, who affirmed their appointment in the house, etc.
Basically, refocus this as "Government Crony Jobs" and update it across all administrations. While Bush is the worst culprit in recent memory (in terms of cronyism leading to loss of lives), we all know that corruption isn’t party based.
Political satire is awesome. Political satire framed with real-time information is powerful. It’s accountability.
