Ethics panel to begin investigation
Isn't it strange how the House Ethics Committee is able to immediately pick up a case against a Democrat even though it didn't really act against Tom DeLay (who actually has ethics problems)?
The House ethics committee will investigate Rep. Jim McDermott, to determine whether he violated standards of conduct when an illegally recorded telephone conversation was leaked to reporters during a committee investigation.Link.
Committee Chairman Joel Hefley, R-Colo., and ranking Democrat Alan Mollohan of West Virginia formed a four-member investigative subcommittee Tuesday to investigate the 1997 incident. McDermott was ranking Democrat on the ethics committee at the time, and the panel was investigating the conduct of then-Speaker Newt Gingrich, R-Ga.
