Ethics and Wisconsin's GOP Congressmen

Craig Gilbert's story in the Journal Sentinel today gives Bucky's four GOP House members a chance to get some distance from their leader, Tom DeLay. Rep. Tom Petri of Fond du Lac goes the farthest, but that isn't very far. Read the story

Meanwhile, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee offers a little different view of where the 4 Badgers stand. Go to Tom DeLay's House of Scandal for more.

This great quote from Barney Frank on Meet The Press: "Hey, look, let me be very straightforward here. I, 15 years ago, had a problem because I behaved inappropriately. The ethics committee stepped in. Newt Gingrich had a problem. He was reprimanded; the ethics committee stepped in. The difference between us and Mr. DeLay is, I think, we changed our behavior. Mr. DeLay changed the ethics committee." NY Times story.
