More Democrats behaving badly?
Red State (Free subscription) | 10/30/2009
While I felt that my response to this Washington Post article involving the investigation of seven PMA Porkers* was pretty succinct (mad giggling usually is), this follow-up article describing the document disclosure ( completely accidental, of course) and some more names to watch deserves at least a bullet points list. Also of interest to ethics investigators, apparently: Charles Rangel (D, NY):...

The Dirty 30 in the congressional swamp
Don Surber (Free subscription) | 10/30/2009

That means that under Speaker of the House Nancy “Drain the Swamp” Pelosi, 7% the House may be swamp critters. And the Department of Justice asked the committee to suspend its investigation of one congressman, West Virginia Democrat Alan Mollohan. “…the department’s request in...

Death By 1000 Papercuts (Free subscription) | 10/28/2009
"Recall that Alan Mollohan (D-WV) is a former chair of the House Ethics Committee.

Pat Ford: Gaining Credibility
The Pittsburgh Comet (Free subscription) | 10/20/2009
. One year after terminating his lingering five-month suspension under an ethics cloud by way of resigning in a fury, calling himself a "scapegoat" for a "failed administration" -- and one year after securing for himself a generous severance package from that administration -- Pat Ford is now at the helm of a coalescing regional development juggernaut just 25 miles from Pittsburgh....

Despite Ethics Investigation, Mollohan Continues to Enrich Friends
Red State (Free subscription) | 10/13/2009
This takes chutzpah: West Virginia Democrat Rep. Alan Mollohan apparently is undeterred by an ongoing Justice Department investigation of his earmarking practices because his 2010 earmark requests includes a $2 million item for a project that will benefit several of his campaign contributors, and a former staff member who is also a real estate investment partner. The project is a new National Guard...
