The sad part is that the worthless media will probably go along with it so that they can appear to be fair and balanced.

The part I don't get is why an ethics investigation against one of the most powerful Democrats in Congress is inconsistent with Speaker Pelosi's vow to clean up Congress.

He should try to end his career with some sense of dignity. He is a decorated war veteran who served his constituents well. He lost his way over the years, corrupted by power, perhaps, but it's not as if he hasn't served his country. It's a real shame that is career has turned out this way.
