Hard evidence of the "culture of corruption"

This is kinda sad, really. A Vietnam fighter ace just trashed all his prior accomplishments...

From Cash to Yachts, Convicted Congressman Set Bribery Rates

Court Documents Show Randall 'Duke' Cunningham Set Bribery Rates

By BRIAN ROSS

Feb. 27, 2006 � Prosecutors call it a corruption case with no parallel in the long history of the U.S. Congress. And it keeps getting worse. Convicted Rep. Randall "Duke" Cunningham actually priced the illegal services he provided.

Prices came in the form of a "bribe menu" that detailed how much it would cost contractors to essentially order multimillion-dollar government contracts, according to documents submitted by federal prosecutors for Cunningham's sentencing hearing this Friday.

"The length, breadth and depth of Cunningham's crimes," the sentencing memorandum states, "are unprecedented for a sitting member of Congress."
