Reply #7: well, i hope he didn't break the rules

i don't condone it for anyone.

but even so, these alleged violations sound fairly minor compared to some of the blatent rule breaking done by some republicans. i know there is a push to make ethics violations a bipartisan problem on the hill, tho i am skeptical of the republican defense of "see? we're not the only ones breaking the rules!" i mean really, if having a staffer babysit your kids is a violation, then it is, but does it really equate to money laundering, huge favors and lots of money from lobbyists and that sort of violation? it doesn't seem exactly equal, does it? :shrug:
