A Well-Connected Freshman


In its December 3, 2005 edition, the Cincinnati Enquirer reported Geoff Davis spokesperson Jessica Towhey saying that disgraced Congressman Duke Cunningham's $11,000 gift to Mr. Davis could not be returned because it had already been spent:

"The money does not sit around collecting dust...This is an example of putting politics ahead of the important issues."

Yes.
The important issues of cash collection.
TIME magazine, today, reports a little tidbit that might upset stoic Republican composure:

Sources tell TIME that ex-Rep. Cunningham wore a wire to help investigators gather evidence against others just before copping his own plea.

Willikers...Yet more domestic wiretapping!
