Nick Smith (R-Mich.) into the national spotlight, FBI agents are looking into alleged attempts to sway the Michigan Republican during a tense Nov. 22 showdown on Medicare reform, according to sources"
"In the days following the November vote, Smith claimed he was offered $100,000 in campaign contributions for his son, Bradley Smith, who is seeking to succeed him in the House. Smith has changed his position somewhat now, although he continues to insist that he was offered "significant financial support" for Bradley Smith if he switched his vote."
Did not see this posted previously. This has got to be one of the most egregious examples of bribery that I have ever seen in my life. Why can we spend $153 million to investigate oral copulation, but it takes 3 "effing" months to start a probe of something that really matters? I feel like I'm living in bizarro times. Where is the bad Superman.
