Not to excuse any of Craig's actions, but this seems to be a lot of the pot calling the kettle black.

The committee wrote, "You knew or should have known that a reasonable person in the position of the arresting officer could view your action and statement as an improper attempt by you to use your position and status ... to receive special and favorable treatment."

C'mon . . . every politician in America is guilty of this. "Do you know who I am?"

My search was set for “Title (Score)” instead of “Title (Date)” and I didn’t see that this article had already been posted. Sorry.

So glad to see the dems admit that attempted gay sex is sick and wrong.

And what exactly did the House Ethics Committee do to Patches Kennedy after he abused his office and a boatload of alcohol and drugs before playing demolition derby with the Capitol Police?

Craig, who is not running for re-election, has spent more than $213,000 in campaign money for legal expense and public relations work in the wake of his arrest and conviction last summer.

He should have to pay that back out of his paycheck. That is rediculous and unfair to those who are running for reelection. He is hurting his fellow Republicans who already don’t have the money the Democrats have. This guy is shameful.

I don’t recall the senate ethics panel rebuking Teddy Kennedy after he murdered Mary Jo which I consider a little mote serious than some old fairy trying to get his jollies in a men’s room somewhere.
