Sad to see a true hero fall from grace.  With that said, he deserves what ever punishment he receives.

Oh, and it turns out Rep. Bobby Rush (D-IL) hasn't been paying his mortgage (source).  Clearly a $150,000 salary is just not enough.

Didn't they just vote themselves another pay raise?  Maybe he can now make ends meet.  hahaha

You claim that the Democratic curroption compares to this Republican corruption? Change your avatar to that of Republican apoligist.

hahaha . . . your blind partisanship does make for some great morning humor.    Keep it up!

Is JoeRepublic's point that Republicans should be allowed to commit acts of corruption because Democrats did it 10 years ago?

The point is that political power opens the door for corruption, and no party nor individual is immune.  It takes strong will to to avoid temptation.

Well I see his point as being, Democrats are not squeaky clean, so we should let Republican corruption slide by.

No, that isn't his point.  His point is that both sides are bad.  Corruption itself should not be tollerated.

Damn crook apoligists. In years past, this would have been big news. Thanks to the current Republican culture of corruption, this is hardly getting any play. Quit apoligizing for the crooks destroying America.

You're such a joke.  It's been all over the news.  Quit being a hack.
