Why is it that all of our NRCC chairmen are crooks? Cole was a corrupt fool, and Reynolds performed miserably in 2006.

It's a shame Stanford didn't use his brilliance for decent purposes.  No one can do what he's done without extreme savy and knowledge and personality.  Everyone gets caught, but the enormity of his deception is rarely found.

Dumb question...I should know this.  Is Pete Sessions a distant relative of Jeff, the Senator?  The name seems awfully uncommon.   (And they are certainly cut from the same cloth, ideologically.)

I was so tempted to post this when the story broke a number of days ago, but I decided to hang back and watch the stew boil.

Not that I know of, but his father was the Director of the FBI during the 80s.

What's this "us"? I was talking about the goals of the national leadership. Your response is more like the Wal-Mart clerk who, when confronted with an attack on policies set in corporate headquarters, says "we don't do that!"

I'd call you a hired gun, but they don't pay you, do they?

Thanks, Magic.  I do remember the Dad.
