Here's to Tony Rezko, the latest addition to the list I maintain on my profile. I started the list about a year ago in response to a list of convicted republicans. Several significant officeholders and other influence peddlers were added in recent months, but I'm sure I missed a few.
I verified every name on the list for conviction and party affiliation, so if you have a link or a source for background, like a web publication or the name of a police investigation, please provide it.
Current office holders:

Read this whole page for a list of democrat campaign activities. All you need for these campaign activities is a gun, a knife, some spray paint to make swastikas, some matches, and some gasoline.
Guilt by association department: Nancy Pelosi, D-California, Speaker of the House, and the ACLU Foundation has contributed to her campaign. That’s the same ACLU that defends the North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA)
Two famous democrats who couldn't keep their pants on:
Franklin Delano Roosevelt
John F. Kennedy
Uh, all this is happening before the election has even taken place!
I'm no lover of Robert Byrd, but is being a KKK member, or former KKK member a crime?
You’re right, it’s not a crime, but it’s certainly also not particularly endearing.
You’re right, it’s not a crime, but it’s certainly also not particularly endearing.
I agree with ya there!
To lesser mortals like you and I? yes. To Sheets Byrd, it means Senator-for-Life.
The Klan was declared a domestic terror organization, and any affiliation, past or present, is suspect.
Thanks, I didn’t even think of William Ayers, who is a friend and donor to the democrat candidate for president.
Thanks for the list. Democrat Crime Syndicate members BUMP!
Excellent! Added that to this:
THUG-O-CRAT hit list

It might have been in the list, I just glanced at it but I would put Pelosi in the top three, it was her that allowed Obama to become accepted as a presidential candidate, all while she knew he was not a qualified Natural Born Citizen.
Pelosi knew all along.
Bring down Pelosi, make her sing.
Target any ethics violations, target her supporters, Pelosi is Obamas Achilles heel.
Reference bump!
We need to update this one...
