.... but Never Fear; the Congessional Watchdogs are ON it

From Glenn Reynolds, evidence that Congress would never politicize something so sacred as "ethics":

HOUSE ETHICS COMMITTEE HURTLES INTO ACTION!

The U.S. House of Representatives have finally gone into action after months of ducking investigating Rep. Charles Rangel (D.-N.Y) for questionable financial dealings, Sen. Chris Dodd (D.-Conn) for alleged sweetheart mortgage deal, and Rep. John P. Murtha for taking illegal contributions.

The case that is taking their esteemed attention is for a speeding ticket that was given to Rep. Zach Space (D-Conn). The serious offense was that he drove 65 in a 50 mph traffic zone, and was given a warning for driving with an expired.

Nice to know they’ve got their priorities in order.
