One senator and six congressmen headed up the river...?
if so, that's a level of corruption unprecedented in the u.s... seems like there's a lot of "unprecedented" stuff going on lately...
i suppose that saying "members of both parties" is meant to somehow be a mitigating factor... i, for one, have little doubt that there are more than a few dems that aren't exactly pure as the driven snow but i also think it's FAR from a mitigating factor... in fact, it's terribly, terribly sad...
