You can bet that everybody knew. And I do mean everybody. I am not surprised at all. God only knows what goes on in Washington with these people. I would bet that some that are serving now as a senator or congressperson should be in jail.
The National Enquirer should follow ALL congress people, to see what they're up to after hours. Maybe then we wouldn't have had to put up with Ted Kennedy all these years. As you said, who knows what these people are up to-- on our money?
