So it is likely that Rahmbo set this ‘job’ up to get Wexler out of the way. Why? I don’t see Wexler resigning just because he wants to ‘spend more time with his family’ or ‘make more money’. Something is up. Too bad our so called press is corrupted, it might be interesting to find out what is going on here. Lots of possibilities.

Looks like Wexler was taking trips sponsored by Center for Middle East Peace & Economic Cooperation and Chinese International Economic Cooperation Association about the same time period as when Rahm was hauling in the big bucks.

WEXLER LEADS PEERS IN GLOBAL TRAVEL
Palm Beach Post, The (FL) - Friday, June 18, 2004
Author: VANESSA MALTIN, Palm Beach Post Washington Bureau
Rep. Robert Wexler, a Democrat from Delray Beach, led local lawmakers in international travel paid for by outside groups last year, according to their annual financial disclosures.

Wexler, a senior member of the House International Relations Committee, reported taking two trips to Germany and one to Taiwan. They were paid for by the International Management and Development Institute, Friedrich Ebert Stiftung - a nonprofit institution that promotes the values of social democracy - and the Chinese International Economic Cooperation Association .

In addition to his congressional salary, Wexler reported assets of between $1,000 and $15,000 and no liabilities. The assets and liabilities do not include properties that are not income-generating.
