I suppose for this cartoon to perfectly capture contemporary Washington ethics, the senator would insist on a conjugal visit with the lobbyist’s wife. Or maybe that is only how Nevada senators operate.

Scott Adams has again laid out political reality far more cleanly than the vast majority of the nation’s editorial pages.

It is only a question of time until the next congressional ethics reform package sets Beltway hearts a-flutter - and it is a certainty that the Washington Post will be shoveling hooey for the cause.

One really has to hand it to comic book nation when the best news or editorial comment comes from comic strips and a satirical comedy news show. Were there comedy revues as Rome was burning and mouldering into decay?

Well, they had the Roman Senate. Does that count?
