He is also accused of trying to help an undercover agent obtain weapons from a Muslim rebel group.
I wonder how they'll respond to that. Let me guess, something about Bush?

Let's see...
One in Queens, NY
One in Rhode Island
One in Charlotte, NC
One in NYC
And this is apparently the third in CA this year
It seems they are ALL democrats...

Bribery, wire fraud, gun running, corruption, etc.

Accusations of law-breaking and Obamacare's rocky roll-out have impugned Democrats' image - latimes.com

His party affiliation isn't mentioned until the 24th paragraph, imagine that.

Exactly, like if he caused a traffic jam on a bridge, then it would be a real story.

It's been a pretty good day:
(six by my count)

California Democrat State Sen. Leland Yee was arrested on charges of bribery and corruption.
Quote:
"Yee discussed helping the agent get weapons worth $500,000 to $2.5 million, including shoulder fired automatic weapons and missiles, and took him through the entire process of acquiring them from a Muslim separatist group in the Philippines to bringing them to the United States, according to the affidavit by FBI Special Agent Emmanuel V. Pascua."

Rhode Island Democrat House speaker Gordon Fox had his office and home raided by law enforcement officials on Friday as part of a criminal investigation. He has since resigned.

Keith Farnham of Illinois a Democrat House Rep. had his office raided in a child porn investigation.

Democrat Pennsylvania state Senator LeAnna Washington allegedly ordered taxpayer-paid employees to organize an annual “birthday party” political fundraiser.

California Democrat State Sen. Ronald Calderon indicted on bribery charges.

FBI Raids NY Democrat Assemblyman Bill Scarborough’s Office as part of “an ongoing FBI investigation.

Did I miss anyone?

(California now has the demographics of a Third World country, and political corruption is SOP in the third world.)
