Our buddies at Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) are doing what they do best: exposing and explaining the misdeeds, corruption, and ethical lapses of those in power. Their latest effort is their third annual “Most Corrupt Members of Congress” report. If you want in-depth info on 22 evildoers and two dishonorable mentions, click the link.
Eighteen of the twenty-two (and both dishonorable mentions) are Republicans, one of whom is actually running for president. The Senate Minority Leader (currently busy slapping democracy in the face) made the list, as did all three members of Alaska’s delegation. Perhaps Alaska should consider electing a Democrat once in a while.
