"An Arizona Democratic lawmaker who once voted against welfare fraud protections in her state has been indicted on felony charges of defrauding the food stamp program. According to the indictment unsealed earlier this week, state Rep. Cecilia Velasquez was charged with three felony counts: unlawful use of food stamps, fraudulent schemes and practices, and theft."

Longtime Democratic Rep. Chaka Fattah of Pennsylvania was found guilty Tuesday on federal corruption charges, a stunning fall from grace for a one-time power player in the City of Brotherly Love.

Fattah, 59, had been charged with bribery, racketeering, money laundering, bank fraud, mail and wire fraud, and filing false statements as part of a years-long criminal scheme that even included Fattah lobbying President Barack Obama for an appointment for one of his co-conspirators. Fattah was found guilty on all charges, as were four co-defendants.

Mr Fattah may join his son in prison. His son is serving a sentence for a similar crime from another criminal act.

Fellow Democrat, Pelosi said, "although I am fond of Rep Fattah, its time for him to leave." We don't want him around reminding voters of the corruption in DC with the election just ahead. If you leave we will supply you with women and drugs. if not we will make you a room mate with Brutus.
