Our own Representative Doc Hastings made a list of 22 corrupt members of Congress. Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) released its third annual report on the most corrupt members of Congress entitled Beyond DeLay: The 22 Most Corrupt Members of Congress (and two to watch).
Hastings made the list for a staffer’s phone call to former U. S. Attorney John McKay’s office requesting information on an ongoing investigation. The CREW report makes it clear that shouldn’t happen and that it raises questions about the ethical behavior of our member of Congress.
In other Doc news: Doc couldn’t wait to get the rhetoric started by attacking the Governor for approving the wind project in Kittitas County. If there’s a wedge issue that divides people, you can count on Doc to exploit it.
