The 22 Most Corrupt Members of Congress, Compiled by CREW

[Lobster Martini]

(LM: This is a list of the 22 most corrupt members of Congress compiled by Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW).

A few observations. Note that about 80% are Republicans, including five in California (one being a presidential candidate) and three in both New Mexico and Alaska. These three states collectively have half of the the most corrupt members of Congress. Well done, voters! You have accomplished a feat that the voters of New Jersey cannot match. No one from New Jersey is on this list.)

The 22 Most Corrupt Members of Congress are:

Sen. Pete V. Domenici (R-NM)
Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY)
Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK)
Sen. Ted Stevens (R-AK)
Rep. Ken Calvert (R-CA)
Rep. John T. Doolittle (R-CA)
Rep. Tom Feeney (R-FL)
Rep. Doc Hastings (R-WA)
Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-CA)
Rep. William J. Jefferson (D-LA)
Rep. Jerry Lewis (R-CA)
Rep. Gary G. Miller (R-CA)
Rep. Alan B. Mollohan (D-WV)
Rep. Timothy F. Murphy (R-PA)
Rep. John P. Murtha (D-PA)
Rep. Steve Pearce (R-NM)
Rep. Rick Renzi (R-AZ)

4. Regarding population, New Mexico and Alaska seem to be disproportionately represented.

They also have large native American populations. This can't be good for the tribes and their financial well being. Indian affairs are so botched up, I am embarrassed for our government. And not just the current administration. The whole thing needs to be reworked and a lot of money paid back in reparations.

Sorry, went off on a tangent.
