A former congressman convicted in the 1970s Abscam investigation was charged Thursday with new allegations that he bribed a poll worker to stuff ballot boxes in local elections.
Federal prosecutors alleged that U.S. Rep.

A bunch of DC Chapter freepers led by the inimitable Doc Raoul actually went all the way out to a pro-troops rally in Johnstown to freep that crooked moron for his anti-military bigotry during the Iraq War. Good times!

Who remembers ABSCAM?
I sure do.
Vote fraud should be a capital offense. Its a direct attack on the entire body politic and should be treated as such.
