articles.moneycentral.msn.com — Now that Sen. Chris Dodd is retiring, we can say goodbye to one of the most broken politicians in Washington. Dodd begins his final year in Congress not with great fanfare or adulation, but as a symbol of power gone bad, of back-scratching of the worst order, and of a political establishment that enabled the downfall of our economy.

The day you grow a womb and ovaries is the day you're allowed to have an opinion on PRO-CHOICE. Until then STFU. End of discussion.

Good riddance. Now hopefully the voters of CT will revolt and try and get Lieberman to retire too. Both their Senators and s**t. Hope they are replaced by good Dems or even better, good Independents!

No, we need a true conservative to replace them all!

That's samurai you're thinking of. They hold up a code of honor and are loyal to their master.All a politician has to do is follow the law (or not get caught) and be popular. And instead of falling on their swords, they get to work as lobbyists once they are disgraced, or get to sell a book if they fail dramatically.Both are noble fighters. But only one can be the Deadliest Warrior.

Take Reid, Pelosi, and Nelson to the landfill with you. The toilet is going to flush in 2010, he just decided to swim out first. He'll probably be a part of the cabinet, a lobbyist, or an ambassador 6 hours after "retirement". Just another assh**e that knew how to serve himself better than he knows how to serve his constituents.

Lets not be hasty now. Disgraceful is such a harsh word. I'm certain if the right organization were to come along with an appropriate - ahem - incentive, the Good Senator could be persuaded to do almost anything.

He's not the only one to get favorable real estate deals. Biden's latest mansion is courtesy of the credit card companies in Delaware. Obama's was purchased way below market rate with help from Tony Rezko with an additional side yard purchased by Rezko's wife!
