Something is seriously wrong with this picture. The moral of the story is that it’s not the crime one commits, it’s the people in high places that one rubs the wrong way that really matters.

He betrayed his oath, he betrayed those of us he was elected to serve, and he did this with full understanding that he was committing a crime -- and then he lied about it. Come on! I agree other criminals should receive the punishments they deserve, but don't belittle his crime saying he's "harmless" and that the crime is "trivial". No crime that blatantly disregards an oath to serve friends and neighbors is trivial and no criminal is harmless.
