It’s ok. He’s a democrat, they can do that.

Politicians /= K Street lobbyists.
Glad I could clear that up for you.

I’m not sure Harry Reid is a guy I’d want to be cozying up to just now.
But that’s just me, I guess.

I’m not sure if any allegations against Reid have shown he’s been involved in anything unethical. It only shows that the media is desperate to “balance” Abramoff with Democratic malfeasance, IMHO.

Aren’t there merely allegations against Burns?

You’re right, Jay. Using campaign funds to pay personal expenses isn’t unethical; it’s illegal.
Thanks for the reminder!

Craig — Burns has been paying his legal bills from campaign funds. I mean, I suppose keeping the candidate out of jail is a campaign expense, sort of, but that seems to me more like a personal expense.

Matt, is that true. Point me to it would you?

Matt, never mind, I found it. That, however doesn’t seem to be illegal under some circumstances.

As to Senator Reid-
Getting your own land quickly re-zoned to commercial through the fact that you’re a Senator might not be illegal, but I’m thinking the average citizen would find it to be a more onerous task than the Senator did.
