Sen. Allen didn’t report stock options
Virginia senator in midst of tough re-election campaign

Updated: 5:36 p.m. ET Oct 8, 2006

RICHMOND, Va. - For the past five years, Sen. George Allen, has failed to tell Congress about stock options he got for his work as a director of a high-tech company. The Virginia Republican also asked the Army to help another business that gave him similar options....http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15188520

2. Frustrating
That is what is so maddening about this...they are reporting crap that is NOTHING...and are ignoring Allen. Difference...Reid is a democrat and Allen is a republican. And they say we have a liberal press.

4. Denny Hastert's sweetheart land deals while Speaker has made him a
multimillionaire. He came into Congress at (for them) poverty level. Denny's done pretty well for himself at the public trough. What's with John Solomon anyway? Some kind of anti-Reid fixation? Plenty of corruption out there John. Open your eyes.

5. Is this on the land deal in NV? ... I just heard about it on C-Span..
Some reTHUG caller phoned in wanting to know why the story of Reid hasn't taken Foley out of the news, and he asked the guys on C-Span if they thought Reid was going to have to step down.

Good grief!! I didn't even know anything about it, so I found the story on WaPo..

I hope he's not in trouble..

6. Land transferred to an LLC
The LLC sold the land, Reid disclosed it as a personal sale instead of a sale through the LLC. That's what an article at Kos said. They are really grasping at straws. Anything but actually try to govern.
