Another Rethug Bids Farewell


Congressman (and soon-to-be jail bird) Rick Renzi (Rethug-AZ) announced that he won't seek reelection next year. Renzi is facing a Federal inquiry into his family's insurance business. In 2005, he also failed to disclose a $200,000 payment from his business partner in a real estate deal. He's also been linked to the Abramhoff scandal and other Rethug passtimes.

That brings to 5 the number of Rethuglican House members announcing retirement, some pending indictment. Heh heh.
