THE MOST CORRUPTED CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT IN AMERICA.....

[Whirlaway]

The Illinois 2nd.............

The Democrats have owned this seat lock, stock and barrel.

“Swell” Mel Reynolds, a former Congressman who represented portions of Chicago, has been arrested in Zimbabwe on pornography charges. He is accused of bringing Zimbabwean models and other women to his hotel room and taking pornographic photos and videos of them.

Reynolds reportedly filmed more than 100 videos and shot 2,000 nude pictures of at least 10 different women. In the process, he reportedly ran up a hotel bill of $24,500 which he has not yet paid.

We’ve written about Reynolds before in connection with the modern history of the congressional district he once represented. Reynolds unseated Gus Savage after Savage was investigated by a House ethics panel for sexual misconduct involving a Peace Corps volunteer while he was on an official congressional visit to Zaire. The committee condemned his behavior and Savage apologized.

Reynolds resigned from Congress in 1995, after a jury found him guilty of having sex with an underage campaign worker. He later was convicted of federal charges of bank and campaign fraud. He remained in jail until President Clinton commuted his sentence in January 2001.

The transgressions of Reynolds successor Jesse Jackson, Jr., are well known. He misappropriated $750,000 of campaign funds, converting them to personal use, such as home furnishings, improper travel and gifts. Jackson was convicted, along with his wife, and sentenced to 30 months in prison.

Reynolds had the audacity to hope that he would succeed Jackson. In 2012, following the latter’s downfall, Reynolds announced his candidacy for the congressional seat. He called his campaign “Redemption.” But the voters declined to redeem Reynolds (even Chicago has its limits) and now, it seems, he has failed to redeem himself.

War on women, anyone?

He thought he could get away with anything because he helped the brotha's get a brand new hotel! over there in the black man's paradise of Africa!
(I'm just channeling my inner Marcus Garvey)
Reynolds was recently involved in a deal to construct a $145 million five-star Hilton Hotel and office complex in Zimbabwe

You know if he wasn't black he wouldn't have gotten arrested. That's true even in Africa or the Peoples Republic of Zimbabwe. At least that is whay Bjerk told me.

You are learning - but capitalize the J, please.

You do understand the sarcasm that Reynolds is in Africa where he is not a minority and in a socialist paradise called Zimbabwe?

Vote? What good does that do? I'll take Criminal B for $400 Alex.

Tar and feathers, appropriate but relentless attacks against all beneficiaries, that is something to vote for.

[Whirlaway]

As usual you miss the mark................

but you got one thing right...."beating up on losers"..........the last 3 representatives of the Illinois 2nd resigned in disgrace, under indictments, and jail time................

What do they have in common besides their race ?

They are Democrats !

Point out another Congressional District that has had a string of corruption like this..........

Its not just their Congressman but their Senators and Governors.

Barry Goldwater reminded us to never elect someone who has always wanted to be president (Bill Clinton) or someone who came from Chicago (Obama by choice, Hillary by birth).
