Do the right thing

It took congressional Democrats about 40 years to become so corrupt that voters tossed them out in the mid-1990s. It took congressional Republicans only a little over 10 years to reach the same point, which is some kind of accomplishment, I suppose.

Kos points out that congressional Dems should do everything they can to prevent (or at least delay) the moment when the pendulum begins to swing the other way again, even if it hurts:

The people should know about any House investigation of PMA group and its crooked dealings with Rep. Murtha. Looks like GOP pressure is finally forcing Steny Hoyer to do the right thing.

Republicans lost the House in 2006 in large part because of their culture of corruption. Democrats shouldn't be allowed to follow suit. We need that majority.
