another republican indicted for corruption

updated 4:56 p.m. ET, Fri., March. 6, 2009

WASHINGTON - A former congressional staffer was indicted Friday on corruption charges for taking a free trip to the 2003 World Series.

In the latest case to arise out of the scandal surrounding ex-lobbyist Jack Abramoff, prosecutors charged Fraser Verrusio, 39, who worked under Republican Rep. Don Young when the Alaska congressman chaired the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee.

Officials say Verrusio and another Capitol Hill staffer accepted an illegal gratuity when lobbyists gave them an all-expense paid trip to New York, including the World Series game and a visit to a strip club.

If he didn't pay his taxes he would be qualified to be Secretary of the Treasury.

You don't get it do you gene Do you? do you know what staffers do? Do you honestly think that gifts would be offered to a file clerk.do you not see a problem with corruption? are you corrupt? do you make payoff and get kickback to get business ? Is that what righty does and expects?

Hang him...................he's just a staffer.BTW corruption should be prosecuted wherever it is found.If we cleaned it all up right now there would be a huge problem...............only half the conservatives would not be in jail to run the entire country because there wouldn't but one democrat left...........sorry I'm wrong.ALL DEMOCRATS would be in jail.......Joe is an independent.LOL

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Point it out please.Liberals are hatemongers..........why do you think the race card gets thrown out by the left so often.It works.....no one to be labeled a racist.Just ask Bill Clinton......now that was funny.

I stand by my DEMOCRAP statement.Democraps would have to forcefully remove their head from their ass to come up with a good idea...............especially an original one.Those tired ideas of yesteryear are only going to keep the ball in play a few more years.

Then I will explain it - saying democrap is a juvenile derogatory statement intended to evoke an adverse emotional response. Its considered language that is intended to provoke. I think it would be much better for you to harness you opinions with out the derogatory language - if your capable
