Menendez sponsored bill to benefit big donor

Menendez sponsored bill to benefit big donor. “…the AP discovers that Melgen turns out to be one of the big investors in a company that would have benefited from Menendez’ sponsorship of legislation to provide federal subsidies to natural-gas conversions for automobiles.” But-but-but it’s not corruption if it’s “helping” the environment an’ stuff.

  • I am SHOCKED! SHOCKED I tell you! Who would have ever imagined that there was corruption in our very own government! In CONGRESS for crying out loud! I DEMAND a bipartisan investigation.

    In other news, water is wet.

  • It's like a game where you see how far you can go, how blatant you can be with your profiteering, and still not get caught. The "ethics" committee is a joke!

  • It's how Senators get rich all of a sudden. Although I'm betting this scumbag wishes he only took the cash, money dosen't talk when you don't pay for services rendered.

  • I didn't realize Trojan had gotten into the natural gas and automobile businesses. It does kind of make sense though:)
