Why is Harry Reid’s family so sacrosanct? No such trivial incursions into the families of Republican political figures are given equal protection by the press or Democrat-run investigative committees, and Democrat district attorneys everywhere in the territory once known as “the United States of America” gleefully jump onto bringing charges of “malfeasance” in instances where there is even the most remote chance that something, anything, will cling to the targeted Republican officeholder.

It is not like Harry could not have afforded this expenditure out-of-pocket. He is once again found to be chiseling from the public treasury, or dipping into funds diverted from legitimate campaign expenditures, for personal enjoyment, as one of his “perks” of office.

Harry does this a lot, thinking that nobody, especially in the current political climate, will ever hold him to account. The “culture of corruption” is a spreading affliction, and it is only a further symptom of “Potomac fever”, which seems to affect almost everybody who has been in high office for far too long.

Does nobody remember Jim Wright, James Traficant, Robert Torricelli, or Dan Rostenkowski?

“America is a nation without a distinct criminal class, with the possible exception of Congress.”

— Mark Twain
