Default We need an ethics invesigation of John F. Kerry

Using campaign funds to pay parking tickets and buy tickets to a Red Sox game? Is that really ethical??

I think this is really going to hurt Kerry/Edwards 04' election chances.

Oh, wait...

"A Federal Election Commission spokesman said congressmen are entitled to pay for parking tickets and other expenses from their campaign funds as long as they were 'campaign-related'."

I'm not particularly fond of John Kerry, but I think it's pretty clear that his attendance at the Red Sox game was a part of his campaign. Why shouldn't he be able to pay parking tickets received while campaigning with campaign funds?

Maybe if he would have parked in legal spaces and used the money he saved for a few more commercials in Ohio he would have got elected.

I think Jax's point is that all this hallabaloo over Tom DeLay seems ridiculous when you begin to look at other congressmen (Pelosi, Reid, etc).

Have you seen Pelosi? j/k.
I've never been very politically correct.
