20 most corrupt members of congress
A fun new report!
* Sen. Conrad Burns (R-MT) * Sen. Bill Frist (R-TN) * Sen. Rick Santorum (R-PA) * Rep. Roy Blunt (R-MO) * Rep. Ken Calvert (R-CA) * Rep. John Doolittle (R-CA) * Rep. Tom Feeney (R-FL) * Rep. Katherine Harris (R-FL) * Rep. William Jefferson (D-LA) * Rep. Jerry Lewis (R-CA) * Rep. Gary Miller (R-CA) * Rep. Alan Mollohan (D-WV) * Rep. Marilyn Musgrave (R-CO) * Rep. Richard Pombo (R-CA) * Rep. Rick Renzi (R-AZ) * Rep. Pete Sessions (R-TX) * Rep. John Sweeney (R-NY) * Rep. Charles Taylor (R-NC) * Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) * Rep. Curt Weldon (R-PA) It's about a 6:1 Republican to Democrat ratio. If all political parties demonstrated equal corruption, you might expect a little less than half to be Democrats, but the Republicans definitely seem to be significantly ahead in this respect. Maybe it's just because they are in power, but whatever the reason, time to boot them. (I also wouldn't miss any of the Democrats on this list - they're easily replaceable in safe districts). |

I surprised Senator Ted "Boom Tubes" Stevens gets a pass. Not that I know of any laws that he's broken, but I assumed the King of Pork could not be dirt-free.

It's Ted's son that's being investigated by the FBI.
I'm disappointed because I think Goode should be there for his MZM dealings along with Katherine Harris.
