Not on Government time or with Government resources they aren't.

Does this earn her just a golf clap from the Congressional That's Racist Caucus, or do they give her a full standing ovation like Frigidaire Bill Jefferson got?

You can always tell the racists by the people who are the first to bring up race when it has zero bearing on the discussion..

5/10.

But if you'd care to elaborate, we will enjoy you white-knighting...er, so to speak...one of the most corrupt members of Congress.

And it was Richardson herself who played the race card when this investigation came to light.

When the ethics committee launched the investigation last fall, Richardson accused it of "unjustly" focusing on some members and suggested she was the target because of her race and sex.

Please get a broom and sweep up the remains of your talking point.

The only question now is when Richardson will double down on the race card in the Democratic primary contest she's in.

Gulper Eel: Please get a broom and sweep up the remains of your talking point.

I don't give a fark, I'm just saying you're a racist. And you sound a little too defensive to me.

Particularly these two.

And the war criminal relaxing in Texas is a indication of just how much respect we have for the rule of law here.*

There's a man who obviously accepts people (and suits) of all colors without exception.

Her staff is pretty stupid not to willingly work on the campaign. Do they not realize that if she loses, they're all out of a job?

That is definitely a no-no. Some of Scott Walker's former aides are being convicted for this. There should be an investigation.

Sabyen91: That is definitely a no-no. Some of Scott Walker's former aides are being convicted for this. There should be an investigation.

Ah, I reread it and she was pressuring them to volunteer. That is quite a bit different than working on her campaign on the taxpayers' dime.

New republican idea: investigate and punish as many democrats as possible to create future problems when they run for higher office.

StrikitRich: Crazy isn't illegal or unethical

The way district lines are drawn these days, crazy is a selling point.

thornhill: Her staff is pretty stupid not to willingly work on the campaign. Do they not realize that if she loses, they're all out of a job?

They have an entire state party establishment to work with. They'll be fine.

Besides, the winner of the Democratic primary wins that seat - and the state party is not stupid. They saw to it that Richardson would be in a primary with a Democratic representative who has the virtue of not being a complete sleaze.

She lost by 20 points in June and she will lose by about that much in November against Janice Hahn.

House Ethics is a sick joke, when the House does nearly nothing but propose new restrictions on women every day.

It really should be considered as bad, considering the more of it you have the more sure you can be of your winning a GOP office.

Well, crap, that is what I get for skimming twice. Bring the hammer down. I don't think her staff should be culpable though, sounds like she is a real bully.

/She deserves a trial and jail time if convicted.

nah, can't blame the staff. Jail time might be a bit harsh but restitution for the time and resources used plus the fine would be good.

I don't know, intimidating and coercing her staff into breaking the law seems like an extra-douchey thing to do. Give her 6 months for being a horrible person. Call it a sentence-enhancer.

accusing the other party of subversion is unethical.

is this like when Bushco was holding campaign strategy meetings with Rove doing slideshows and stuff in the govt buildings on govt time? or using the email system to do campaign business? (remember when it "ate" all those millions of emails?) or when they got the DoJ to fire all those US attorneys who wouldn't press bogus charges against their opponents just before an election? or when they got caught phone jamming and coordinating it through the white house?

no. This just happened and that was years ago and entirely unrelated.

No, this is completely different. See, in those cases, they were measures of last resort taken by brave Republican patriots in their quest to save the nation. In this case, it was done by a Democrat infidel seeking to destroy America.

Unless the person is running for Gov of Wisconsin. I'm sure that the wing nuts are equally upset about Walker's staff doing campaign work on govt time using govt resources, right?
