Duke Cunningham, a yacht, pj bottoms, Tneck, champagne, lava lamp, ladies
Courtesy Wonkette, this from Copley News Service:

....The ever-macho tough guy, (Cunningham) took bribes to buy a 19th Century Louis Phillipe commode. The family man, he liked to invite women to his yacht. There, two of them told Copley News Service, he would change into pajama bottoms and a turtleneck sweater to entertain them with chilled champagne by the light of his favorite lava lamp....

1. He got $500,000 for bashing Kerry
from the same article


Cunningham’s Washington meant launching biting partisan attacks and questioning the patriotism of his foes, all based on ostensible fealty to what was best for the troops, while in reality putting his own enrichment as his top priority. A look back at some of his most scathing denunciations of fellow veteran Sen. John Kerry last year shows that some of them came on the same days he was getting checks for as much as $500,000 in bribe money.

4. When I was watching his teary resignation, I had no idea...
of the detailed extent of his treachery. He deserves a long time in jail.
