The worst thing about this hypocrite is that he's sitting on the Senate Finance Committee, voting against a public option in health insurance. One thing Johnny does well is toe the GOP party line. HIS health insurance is paid for by our tax dollars. And his girlfriend and her husband were paid off by his parents. This is one guy who has NEVER paid his own way for anything, but expects the rest of us to foot the bill for him. He is an embarrassment to the state of NV, but most of the local yokels are so uneducated they'll probably re-elect him, afraid the Dems will "take away their guns" or give them "socialized" health care. They'd rather have NO health care, which is what most of them now have, than anything FOX news tells them is bad.

I don't know if Ensign alone can be tagged as a sign of everything that's wrong in DC, but I'd definitely say your "question" was reflective of the narow-mindedness and partisan demonization that is all too common around here.
And who are you Democrats to lecture on ethics? You support Charlie Rangel, a know tax cheat, writing the tax code. You defend Timmy Geithner, who didn't know how to use TurboTax, running the Treasury. You support Mike Nifong, disgraced and disbarred DA behind the Duke lacrosse rape hoax.
But Chris Dodd and Charlie Rangel are okiely-dokely in the same Senate Committees? It is spelled H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-S-Y.
I live in Nevada and he is a lot better than Harry Reid.
