...history" isn't either? Especially since the following:
Nancy Pelosi nominated William Jefferson to a Homeland Security Committee seat despite being indicted on bribery charges.
Harry Reid was involved in a number of land deals that favored his four sons.
Christopher Dodd hypocritically attacked AIG...conveniently ignoring the fact that he took $102,000 in donations and authorized those bailouts.
Dodd also received discount mortgages from Countrywide. So did Kent Conrad.
Charlie Rangel is the House Ways and Means Committee Chair, which writes the tax code. Rangel himself is delinquent $75,000 in back taxes.
Laura Richardson has eight defaults on three homes.
Jack Murtha is involved in a lobbying scandal.
John Kerry used the Timothy Geithner excuse of "honest mistake" to explain his $800,000 tax lien.
The husband of Hilda Solis had tax liens dating back to 1993.
Alcee Hastings, who was kicked off the bench accepting bribes, used taxpayer money to buy a Lexus.
Loretta and Linda Sanchez, congressional sisters from California, are involved in a payroll scandal.
Maxine Waters has a personal and financial stake in a bank that received millions in bailout money.
Corrine Brown used city employees and prison inmates to sandbag her home during Tropical Storm Faye in 2008. Brown's daughter is also a lobbyist for special interests.
Jesse Jackson, Jr., was one of a number of people who tried to buy Obama's Senate seat.
Alan Mollohan was involved in a number of ethics issues and was forced to step down from...THE ETHICS COMMITTEE!
