House Republicans To Gut Ethics Watchdog

[Timmy]

this is what the GOP congress is up too late at night . Getting rid of those pesky ethics rules !

Republicans just gutted Congress' ethics panel. Elizabeth Warren's response is PRICELESS.

n a Monday night vote, Rep. Robert Goodlatte (R-Virginia) introduced a series of rules that would gut the Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE) — an independent, nonpartisan agency set up by then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-California) in 2008 after several members of Congress were jailed for corruption and various other crimes. The vote comes the night before a crop of new Republican members of Congress will be sworn in. Among other things, Goodlatte’s proposed language would prevent the ethics agency from contacting law enforcement if they identify a crime.

Where was the ethics board when Hussein used the IRS to spy on and punish political enemies and then used "executive privilege" to prevent the IRS chief from testifying? Where was the ethics board when Hussein used threats and intimidation to get the abomination of a health care bill passed? Where was the ethics board when an obscure you tube video was blamed for the Benghazi attack? Drain the swamp.

Another thread on this? The GOP doesn't need help with ethics. Morality is like quantum mechanics to a liberal.

According to the news it's not as.independent as it's made out.,,.........Perhaps some discussion of its performance might be in order

 

[candycorn]

Lets see….fewer ethics cops running around and more Goldman Sachs types in the hallways of lawmakers.

Whats the worst that could happen?

 

[TNHarley]

The ethics board seems to be a joke, but so is having one being governed by the very people they are to investigate.
Just more bullshit from Washington.
