John Ensign Resigning Senate Seat Tomorrow

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

Nevada Sen. John Ensign (R) plans to announce Friday he will resign his Senate seat, aides said Thursday.

Ensign has been under investigation by the Senate Ethics Committee over whether he violated Senate rules during his affair with Cindy Hampton, a former campaign aide. Hampton’s husband, Doug Hampton, was Ensign’s deputy chief of staff during most of the extramarital relationship.

Another douche bag out the door. The governor gets to appoint his successor which will likely be Congressman Dean Heller. If Heller moves up to the Senate, that will trigger a special election to his House seat and word is that Sharron Angle might run.

Buh bye, Ensign. Good riddance.

It's about time, although it seems kind of sudden after dragging his feet all this time. They must have found something bad..

Yeah, good riddance.

The Dems hang on to their scum-bags though.

They threaten them, tell them that nothing will happen with any investigation.

They just keep em there while the Repugs kick their's to the curb.

I believe this women is still in congress..

Rep. Johnson Gave 23 Scholarships to Relatives and AssociatesCongressional Black Caucus member Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson (D-TX) has admitted to steering 23 scholarships worth over $25,000 to two grandchildren, two great nephews and the children of a top aide over the past four years.

The scholarships came from a non-profit affiliate of the CBC called the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation, which Rep. Johnson sat on the board of from 2005 to 2008. The Texas congresswoman’s family members and aides’ children were considered ineligible for the scholarships under the foundation’s anti-nepotism rules.

Each member of the CBC is allotted $10,000 a year to dispense in scholarships. The scholarships Rep. Johnson gave to friends and family members from 2005 to 2009 totaled over half of the foundation money she was responsible for allocating during that time period.

McCain pretended to be 'Conservative'...until he gets re-elected. He's got RINO tracks all over him.
