I'm compiling a list of political scandals that have taken place in the last 15 or 20 years or so. For the Dem's, there is the Bill Clinton fiasco & the William Jefferson bribe scandal. On the Republican side there is the Larry Craig debacle, Vitter's name on the DC prostitute's list, Gonzales' perjury (or alzheimer's), the politicization of the Justice Department, preferential no-bid contracts to Dick Cheney's "former" employer, Tom DeLay's money laundering, and the list goes on... (remember Nixon & Agnew?)
I know I mentioned more Republican scandals than Democratic scandals. There may be many more involving Dem's than Republicans, I don't know, but that's just what I could think of right now.
Please submit any scandals you can think of, on both sides. Please name names and give approx. dates & SOURCES (it's just too easy, innocently or otherwise, to repeat unsubstantiated rumors & politically motivated lies).
THANKS!
