Default A First for America

This is a true story. I hope it doesn't offend anyone. If so, I apologize in advance.

Jessie Jackson added former Chicago congressman Mel Reynolds to the Rainbow/PUSH Coalition's payroll recently. Reynolds was among the 176 people pardoned in President Clinton's last-minute forgiveness spree. Reynolds received a commutation of his 6 1/2-year federal sentence for 15 convictions of wire fraud, bank fraud, and lying to the Federal Election Commission. He is more notorious, however, for concurrently serving 5 years in prison for sleeping with an underage campaign volunteer.

This is a first for America: An ex-congressman who had sex with a subordinate won clemency from a president who had sex with a subordinate, then was hired by a clergyman who had sex with a subordinate. His new job? Youth counselor. Is this a great country or what?

This is just a slightly twisted version of 'sleeping your way to the top.' Too bad I'm at the bottom of the heap at my work - I don't have any subordinates to have sex with - how is a guy supposed to get ahead today? Hard Work!?!

remember that episode of senfield where costanza sleeps with the cleaning lady.

"i didn't know it was wrong to sleep with the cleaning lady, i didn't see that in the employee manual". ahaha

then he gave her that cashmire sweater with a stain!

What the hell did that have to do with jesse jackson?

I heard someone call Jesse Jackson's posse the "Jesse Jackson rent a riot"
