Oh Lord in heaven above, they’ve had to take another Republican off the House Ethics Committee because he’s a creep.

A Republican congressman was removed from the House Ethics Committee on Saturday after it was reported that he used thousands of dollars in taxpayer money to settle a misconduct complaint by a former staffer.

Bye, bye, Patrick Meehan, Republican from Pennsylvania.

A married father of three, Mr. Meehan, 62, had long expressed interest in the personal life of the aide, who was decades younger and had regarded the congressman as a father figure, according to three people who worked with the office and four others with whom she discussed her tenure there.

He made life miserable for her when she did not reciprocate.  A settlement was made using taxpayer money.

Finding an ethical Republican in congress is like trying to find a virgin in a bawdy house.

Thanks to Barb in DeeCee for the heads up.
