Politician payments to settle sexual misconduct allegations should be prosecuted!

I'm glad we got the ball rolling, so let's keep it going and do Congress next. If politicians aren't allowed to use their own money to pay off claims they for damn sure shouldn't be using millions of taxpayer dollars!

CNN article

Two things have become painfully clear on Capitol Hill this week: Lawmakers and staffers say sexual harassment is “rampant” – but even members of Congress have no idea just how widespread the problem is.

On Thursday, the Office of Compliance released additional information indicating that it has paid victims more than $17 million since its creation in the 1990s. That includes all settlements, not just related to sexual harassment, but also discrimination and other cases.

Or how about the Sax man himself: Clinton Settles Jones Lawsuit With a Check for $850,000 - NYT

What's that? We'll never bring charges? Why not?!?
