Another profile in courage—I never said we’d end corruption, so don’t get mad at us for Rangle, etc.!
‘made the ethics process work...’
It’s an alternate reality there.
Oh good grief, they’re ALL guilty as sin. “Draining the swamp”....so bogus.
Meaning it works against thee but not me.
Drain the swamp? I dunno, but that sounds either racist or sexist to me.
A good newsie would engage in some basic cross-examination here:
Do you agree that this House was an ethical “swamp.”
Do you agree that the “swamp” needed to be drained?
If no; then you disagree with Ms. Pelosi that your House was a swamp?
You don’t believe that there was a lack of ethics under the previous Congresses?
If yes:
What specific investigations have you done to see to it that this “swamp” is being drained?
What have you done to prosecute the ethics complaints against Rep. Charles Wrangel? What did you do to investigate and prosecute ethics complaints against Rep. William Jefferson? What is your reaction to Sen. John Kerry’s attempt to avoid lawful excise taxes imposed by the State he represents?
Go down the list.
Either way, he will sound like the political whore he is.
