The New York Post, better late than never, discovers an allegator in Mrs. Pelosi’s Swamp, to wit her ethically challenged Chairman of the Judiciary Committee John Conyers.
But Conyers’ credibility as the Democrats’ moral watchdog was shredded by the dubious deal he just struck with the House Ethics Committee – which was made public late last Friday in a holiday-weekend bid to avoid publicity.
After a probe lasting more than three years, the committee declared that Conyers has “accepted responsibility” for a series of House rules violations involving the use – and abuse – of his staffers.
The Post compares Conyers to disgraced and resigned former New York State Controller Alan Hevesi:
New York’s state comptroller, Alan Hevesi, just lost his job and pleaded guilty to a felony for doing a lot less with taxpayer-funded employees.
Mark Foley resigned. Hevesi resigned. Mrs Pelosi should demand no less from Conyers.
