True..they probably figured "Hey the conservative President violates the US Constitution and his oath of office all the time so I guess we can break rules too"
But this excuses nothing on anyone's part

it's "indictments," by the way, but - yes, I agree with you. So much for the promise of an ethical Congress.
BUT, I suppose Pelosi will be backed into a corner now and be forced to have expedited hearings to remove him from Congress altogether. Word is she really didn't want to put him on the HS committee, but the Congressional Thug Caucus demanded that she do so.

Politics = Compromise, compromise, compromise; personal ethics, worthwhile legislation, peace and security of the populace, etc, etc. Pelosi gave him the last slot on this panel after removing him from Ways and Means because she got so much flak from the Black Congressional Caucus. Don't worry, The Honorable Congressman Jeffreys will soon change his title to a number in a federal pen. They have him by the short hairs and two of his cronies have turned on him and pleaded guilty already.

Because he is an ally of Nancy Pelosi. He was under investigation when they put him on the committee and although some democrats attempted to block his appointment to this or any committee until AFTER it was resolved, Nacy pushed and Nancy won.
Of course her son is employed by a company that makes money selling information to con artists. i.e. lists of Alzheimer's patients Research it yourself the company is called infoUSA and they are based in Germany.

They enjoy flaunting the radical positions and defy reason in most of their activities. Look at how Reid and Pelosi block any use full activity. Pelosi removed that crook from one minor committee assignment and then put him in a more critical position. What she was thinking is beyond me. Perhaps the liberals were rewarding Him for learning how to get the most personal gains from his office.

Well, he didn't have them when put on the committee. Of course the cons have a Supreme Court decision that f--k and s--t are okay on radio and tv because the president and VP used them there. Moral Majority. It balances out.

Get over the partisan hacking. Listen to Glenn Beck instead of Sean Hannity.
