Green ignoring the corruption in Congress

For a guy that sees corruption everywhere he looks on the Dem side, Congressman Green has a remarkable ability to turn a blind eye to the muck coming out of Congress these days.

Congressman Bob Ney (R-OH), a man he liked so much that he invited him to our state so we could all get the Ney version on reform, has recently admitted to felonies but he is refusing to resign from his job. Someone concerned about corruption in government should be demanding that anyone guilty of a felony for actions involving their conduct in office step down from office immediately.

We haven't heard one word from Congressman Green on his friend Ney lately though. Why should Ney still be getting a check from the taxpayers of this country? Why does Congressman Green think Ney should still be getting taxpayer paid for health care when there are millions of Americans that do without health care because they can't afford it?

It's not surprising if this sounds sickeningly familiar to you. Congressman Green's leader up until a few months ago didn't remove himself from office until the public ran him out of town. Congressman Green and his colleagues even voted to change the rules to let former Majority Leaders Tom DeLay stay longer.

If Congressman Green can't see the corruption in Congress and be a leader on it by speaking out against it, why should voters believe he will be a leader on that issue as Governor?
