" . . . but wasn't Hastings' conviction overturned or something a few years ago?

I hope not. Hillary or some equally repulsive (if that's possible) dem would promise to make him a federal judge again.

How can you have a guilty co-conspirator, yet be acquitted?

I can't believe someone of this disrepute is even ELIGIBLE for Congress.....let alone a Committee Chairmanship


Democrat. Any Republican similarly situated would be in jail.

No, no, no ~ we must experiment on Democrats with embryonic stemcells until they are either cured or dead.

That is an interesting question. I guess it is like several people involved in a crime and one cuts a deal on his pals to get himself off. In this case, the guy went to jail and didn't cut a deal. Unless, of course, he knew that Clinton was eventually going to pardon him.

Well, don't hold your breath waiting for him to step aside. Pelosi will give him some big position and then he'll say you can't prosecute a member of Congress.

The Democratic Party. The party where being a felon is a prime qualification for getting elected. Republican corrupt pols get dismissed an arrested. Similar Dem pols just get elected...and appointed to key positions.
