Dingy Harry is guilty of breaking federal laws. Where is the Repub cry in the halls of Congress for his resignation?? For investigations?? For all of the things the whining libs scream for when a Repub farts???
If he can pay it back out of his pocket, why couldn't he pay it out of there in the first place?
There is no report of him giving ANY other money than this money. But the condo association has a fund for these christmas bonuses, which most of the residents contribute to out of their own money simply to reward the staff for their regular duties.
Reid here is saying the only reason he gave them money was for the "extra work they did for him".
So, what about the normal christmas bonus for just being normal workers? Was Reid to cheap to give out bonuses?
How dare Republicans point out my illegal activities during an election?
--and in the Catch-22 of media bias, one of the Demotraitor angles to it is that "the media aren't even bothering with it, knowing that there's really nothing wrong with what he did"----
Will he now fire his lawyer?
"Reid's office said Monday the senator's lawyers had approved them" Is this a precedence? If I get a lawyer to approve of illegal activity before I commit said activity, does this mean it's okay? |

Harry Reid's ethics cloud covers Cantwell
While an ethics cloud grows over Senate Democrat and Minority Leader Harry Reid's million-dollar Las Vegas land deal, Washington State Republican Party Chairman Diane Tebelius today called on Sen. Maria Cantwell to return the $6,000.00 in campaign cash that she received from Reid.
"Given Maria Cantwell's own ethical clouds over her relationship and financial dealings with lobbyist and longtime friend Ron Dotzauer, she should immediately distance herself from Reid's own ethical problems and return the six-thousand dollars in donations," Tebelius said.
Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid has come under fire for collecting over a $1 million dollars in a Las Vegas land deal from property that he has not owned for three years and for failing to report the million dollars on his Senate financial statements according to an Associated Press story dated Oct. 11, 2006.
"Either Maria Cantwell finds this acceptable or she does not," said Tebelius. "Voters deserve to know that she stands by the ethics rules of the U.S. Senate, especially given the ethics questions surrounding her efforts to steer millions in budget earmarks to Dotzauer's clients and his unpaid personal loan from the Senator."
