If you want trouble, find yourself a redhead

This is going to hurt 'The Most Ethical Congress Ever', and that's over and above the fact that they tried to strike a deal to get around it.

Years and years ago, I was waiting for a quiet, mid-morning flight from LGA to ORD. Being type A and with upgrade in hand, I'm waiting right at the gate even though they haven't started boarding yet. Up comes Rangel, with some assistant, maybe a driver/security guy. He (security guy) steps right in front of me while uttering the words 'first class'. He was basically holding Rangels place in line, while Rangel sat comfortably. The guy didn't board the flight with him (this was back when a non-flying passenger could get through security). First class, my ass. |

Is this one of those things were the congress gets to police themselves? So, Rangel can thank the stars his timing was fortunate. However, you can bet there will be leaks and this is going to be an overall net drain on the Democrats in November. |
