Wow! How do they choose?
It is foolish as well as inaccurate to state that all polititions are corrupt. They are not, certainly not all of them. But many fall into the temptation to abuse their offices for personal gain, and others were/are scumbags from the get-go.
Here's the latest list of the top twenty bottom-feeders: quote:
CREW RELEASES SECOND ANNUAL MOST CORRUPT MEMBERS OF CONGRESS REPORT
September 20, 2006
2006 Edition Includes Five Members to Watch in 109th Congress
Washington, DC – Today, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) released its second annual report on the most corrupt members of Congress entitled Beyond DeLay: The 20 Most Corrupt Members of Congress (and five to watch). This encyclopedic report on corruption in the 109th Congress documents the egregious, unethical and possibly illegal activities of the most tainted members of Congress. CREW has compiled the members' transgressions and analyzed them in light of federal laws and congressional rules.
Two members have been removed from last year's list of 13. Rep. Randy “Duke” Cunningham (R-CA) is now serving an eight-year jail term for bribery and Rep. Bob Ney (R-OH) has agreed to plead guilty to crimes that will likely result in a minimum two-year prison term.
Did ya see anybody ya know?
