I'm sure the Senate Ethics Committee will be all over this. Senate Ethics, now that's an oxymoron.

Now... now. If you can't trust a US Senator who can you trust?

But prosecutors announced earlier this year that no criminal charges will be brought against Torricelli. And the matter was referred to the Senate "Ethics" Committee.

Well, that's the end of it. No story here. Move on.

As long as Tom Daschle is the majority leader in the senate, there will no ethics. Daschle has one thing we don't..... The media covering for us.

Hell, he is a Democrat---nothing will happen to him. The Media will look the other way, and he will probably get his own talk show.

Ain't that the truth?

The REAL question is: does he have connections to the oil industry?

he is a Democrat

Thanks for giving the party affiliation. This is the first mention of it on this page -- none in the article.

If he were a Republican, the first mention of his name probably would have been followed by "(R-NJ)", or the second reference to him might have been "the conservative/Republican Senator" or something similar to smear his entire party. But, since he's a democrat, his party gets another pass.

If Ted Kennedy can chair the comittee investigating obesity, Bob Torricelli should chair the Ethics Committee.

Well that settles it. Anyone making accusations against Reno must be a pathological lying nut case.
