The Culture Of Corruption? Not So Fast!
The Democrats are banking on “The Culture Of Corruption” of the Republicans, but this may not pay off for them! Today there is talk of:
Ethics allegations against Rep. Alan Mollohan (D-W.Va.)
At the center of the NLPC complaint is an exponential increase in Mollohan’s net worth between 2000 and 2004 that was due in large part to a series of real estate investments. In 2000, Mollohan’s personal financial disclosure statement showed him with $565,000 in household assets and $465,000 in debt; four years later his household assets were estimated at between $6.3 million and $24.9 million with debts of between $3.7 million and $16.5 million. (Mollohan has said his worth is much closer to the lower end of those estimates.)
During that same period, Mollohan secured more than $150 million in earmarked appropriations for five nonprofit groups that he helped establish and which are based in his congressional district. One of the groups is headed by a woman with whom Mollohan has invested in real estate in North Carolina.

It’s like an irony, wrapped in hypocrisy, inside an enigma. And, once again, it’s priceless.
