What should happen to congressman Trey Radel who was caught buying cocaine numerous times while police were?

gathering intel for a sting on drug dealers. When D.C's mayor was set up with a woman, some crack, and a little camera to catch him in action he was re elected. Is this what we should expect out of our politicians now. One things for sure Trey is a huge hypocrite being that his public policy stances include asking welfare recipients to pass a drug test to be eligible for food stamps [ and fk it if the kids don't eat.]

    Better yet, if a green-horn Republican with only 10 months hanging out in D.C. has the ability to access street drugs, what does that suggest about all of congresses network abilities and the party activities/life style all the members are up to while in town.

    I bet you'd be surprised at the real truth of what many members of Congress are getting away with if proper investigations were done on all members of Congress.

    He should be treated just like any other cocaine user, but since he's well-off and powerful and white he'll probably do no jail time.

    The chart below addresses marijuana arrest rates (by the way, a similar percentage of whites use marijuana as blacks--something like 12% of whites admit to using compared to 14% of blacis), but the principle remains the same: we whites are very privileged people.

    I would bet that the gentleman in question does exactly zero days in jail if he's convicted.

    No, he went to prison for six months and then he was re-elected. When will Radel be doing prison time?

    Maybe he should get the same punishment Ted Kennedy got for killing Mary Jo Kopechni..

    Obama admitted to snorting cocaine too, and now he's the worst financial POTUS in US history.

    Is there a link here? I'm thinking that there is.

  • Let me guess. He's a Republican! They get all the best dope.

    How is Radel hypocritical? He's not on welfare.
