The Senate Ethics Committee in Full Cry Over #307

Sen. Jon Ensign of Nevada has figured that if he just shuts up about the Hampton Affair, in which he fucked the wife of his best friend, it will all go away.

That was about a year ago and it hasn't gone away since. Ensign got a a rude reminder of how it hasn't gone away when he appeared on one of journalist Rick Sanchez broadcasts to damn the health care plan supported by President Obama and Sanchez remarked why should we answer Ensign's 'questions' about the now-passed legislation when he wouldn't answer ours about him fucking Cindy Hampton. A visibly startled Ensign tried to shift the discussion back to the health-care bill but Sanchez was having none of it. He kept questioning Ensign about Hampton and Ensign kept repeating over and over he wasn't going to answer any questions about it.

But then the thing metastized. Suddenly, the FBI and the Senate ethics committee weren't interested in who Ensign was fucking. They didn't care. What they DID care about was Ensign violating lobbyist rules when he tried to get the cuckolded husband, Doug Hampton, a job as a lobbyist. Even juicier, did Ensign use his position as chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee to solicit campaign contributions from firms in exchange for the promise of legislative favors.
