Blaming money for corruption is like blaming temptation for sin. Edwin Edwards, ex-Governor of Louisiana, said in one of his early corruption trials, "You have the wrong man on trial here. It is illegal for him to give it to me but it is not illegal for me to take it." Ah, those Democrats. At least Edwards was more honest than these crooks who are saying, "The Devil made me do it. Kill the Devil!"

That's why CFR is a liberal creation at heart. This is people blaming "the system" for their own inability to act honorably. It's no different than blaming guns for murders.
