Convicted or not I agree with you that Hastings shouldn't be chairman of the Intelligence Committee much less even sit on it......

Alcee Hastings, Bribery, and the House Intelligence Committee
Will Democrats overlook the next chairman’s past?

"If they shut down the ethics committee, would anyone notice?"
anyone in trouble would be tickled silly
Is anyone in trouble with the ethics committee? At all?
I don't think they've done anything serious against anyone sinve they voted to boot Traficant. Unlike every other committee, the ethics committee has equal numbers from each party -- and they seem to have reached a detente where, to avoid partisan squabbles, they just sort of decided not to do anything.
I don't recall any serious investigations, any sanctions, or even any wrist-slapping in the Congress about to conclude. In its current state, the ethics committee is about as useful as teats on a boar hog.
No, Alcee Hastings is being considered for the chair of the Intelligence committee. It's a toss up between Hastings, a man who solicited bribes, or Jane Harmon, whose aide leaked security briefings to the NYT. It doesn't matter which they pick, we might as well invite Bin Laden to take a seat on the House Intelligence Committee.
Yes, an Indiana Democrat won re-election to the House in 1984 by a margin of negative thirty-four votes.
