Look up the amount of business he's swong to his sons' and son in law's lobby firms to really get an idea of what a corrupt hypocrite he is. The source to look at is that liberal bastion of truth, the LA Times. They had a VERY informative story about his dealings with the lobbying firms employing his kids for mid six figure salaries.

The culture of corruption takes another blow, and once again it is a Democrat, Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid.  He of course denies all wrong doing, but the timing here was no better or worse then most of the other recent ethics scandals…

Should Nancy Pelosi resign? Should Howard Dean resign? If Reid had an R next to his name, that is what the MSM would be hollering. The question is, Senator Reid, will you be resiging?

Wow, hell of a conflict of, uh, conflict of, uh, well, it's not really a conflict of anything when you accept tickets from somebody for which you're doing the exact opposite of what they want. That's like "unbribery" - give me the money and I'll screw you over. If anything, this proves Reid's independence - it ain't a bribe when you take the tickets with no intent whatosever to help.</blockquote> An opinion from AMERICAblog’s take on this:

He did not accept tickets for favorable votes or influence. Also, the Senate rules speciifically allow gifts from a member's home state. Therein lie the differences with what Reid and Duke Cunningham, et al, did. Spin it all you want; truth shall prevail (a concept foreign to may of you on this board).

The Democrite "Culture of Corruption" is every bit as wide and deep as anything the Republicans have. The main difference is that the Democrites also have a layer of arch-hypocrisy, and a layer of treason.
