Well it's not like he was going to parties, getting prostitutes, yachts, homes and cash like the republicans do, but your point is taken.

Course it's not till the end of the story that we get this:

Kathleen Clark, a Washington University of St. Louis congressional ethics expert, said Congress should re-examine the exemption allowing gifts by state and federal and local governments because they too can have interest in influencing federal lawmakers like Reid.

So no laws were broken after all.

Besides I think legislators should get ticket to boxing matches if they are studying legislation affecting the boxing commission. How else are they going to know what is currently going on with the sport and the commission? That's doing the government's work, and the government should pay for a reasonable number of boxing tickets.

I think we should find out if Bush and Cheney paid for their tickets when they threw out those baseballs and got booed.
