Group Lists 13 'Most Corrupt' in Congress

• Rep. Maxine Waters: The report cites a December 2004 Los Angeles Times investigation disclosing how members of the congresswoman's family have made more than $1 million in the last eight years by doing business with companies, candidates and causes that Waters has helped. Before publication of the Times investigation last year, Waters declined to be interviewed, but said of her family members: "They do their business, and I do mine."

"... generally, all over the heads of my constituents."

It's going to be difficult to impeach when you don't have Congress.

Waters and her ilk in Congress ought to be censured and then thrown out of the country.

If a president's untruthfulness about sexual relationships is an impeachable offense

I know that Waters is dumb, but DAMN! He wasn't impeached for lying about his affairs. He was impeached for suborning perjury thus denying a citizen her civil rights.

"chorus..."

A chorus sounding only slightly more discordant than the first cut on American Idol...

I question the veracity of the 13 most corrupt list because Corrine Brown is not listed among them.

Let me get this straight, Bill Clinton has a true "domestic spying" program in place, in peace time, which intercepted calls that may have related to drug trafficking, industrial espionage etc. Of all of the warrant less searches authorized by Clinton, only the Aldrich Aims spy case seems to fall under the President's Article II power. Yet, even after this story ran on 60 minutes in 2000, before the election, the lefties had not one peep of complaint.

Now a Republican spies on Al-Qaeda, with whom we're at war, and every left-wing nut-job in the country is screaming for impeachment.
(P.S. I was driving near DC on I-95 / 495 yesterday and as I approached exit 169, some Dim had hung a bedsheet on a pedestrian overpass that said "Impeach" A freeper in the area needs to take another sheet, write "Hillary" and hang it right beside it.)
