i figured as much. Besides, the criminality is conducted inside Congress, not outside...

[Chad Ross]

I can not belive that that there is that much crime in congress they are supposed to the people that uphold the law instead of breaking the law

I do not doubt the data but I would be interested in the source.
Are these the current members of congress?

[John Weston]

None of this is verified information, and I seriously doubt every single one of these numbers. This article has no mention of a single source, a single event that can be verified, or a single name. Its a hoax email thats been going around since 1999. Thats all.
