"Ehtics Czar"

Of coarse the answer is "hypocrisy" (VDH)

--------------------
I don't understand why in the world — for all her obvious academic and business achievements and in all due respect — Obama associate Valerie Jarrett (or Caroline Kennedy) — never elected to a single office — would be qualified to be a U.S. senator by a fiat appointment, especially in a political climate where Sarah Palin (16 years in local and state politics, and several elections) was deemed by the media too inexperienced for high elected office.

And I don't understand why Charles Rangel mired in serial ethics and legal messes, and Barney Frank and Chris Dodd at ground zero of the Fannie-Freddie meltdown, haven't stepped down from their committee chairmanships, especially given the nexus between the money they received and the entities they were supposed to oversee.

...
In short, we need an ethics czar, pronto!
