Wanted: Tax Cheats, Frauds, Pond Scum of All Persuations, Apply @ White House. Oh And Check Out Rahm's DC Digs

Irving Park bus rider/POTUS Obama Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel earned headlines this week upon word that his "renting" of the basement in scarily-spectacled Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro (D-CT)'s Capitol Hill abode is illegal. Delauro tried to clear up the matter, telling the press that Emanuel's been staying there for free. Scandal averted? Nope: "Free" is actually worse than "renting," thanks to the Obama administration's new and improved ethics rules regarding acceptance of private gifts from personal friends in high places. Delauro's hub, a Democratic pollster, owns the house. Whoops!
