A very long list of politicians who have apparently succumbed to blackmail gone sour. If they don't please their master they suddenly get sex charges placed against them.

More examples of convicted politicians who likely made their blackmailing owners unhappy during the history of the US.
Quite a long list actually.

This list ends before the Dennis Hastert conviction.

It's missing the weird one in Michigan where the two married tea partiers tried to concoct a fake gay scandal for the male tea partier so as to avert suspicion on their heterosexual cheating scandal. That one was weird and ill thought out. "Well, it'll be less of a sex scandal if you just pretend to be gay."

What? Please link? I'm from Michigan and haven't heard about this.

It was the stupidest plot ever.

what id love to see is a list of people who got brought down with scandal just as they were about to something anti globalist. e.g. Anti Fed sentiments; anti war sentiments; going after corruption etc.
i browsed some names from that list but not many jumped out at me as im not a US citizen.
plus many were congressmen who AFAIK can't really do as much as eg Attorney Generals etc or people more involved with law enforcement / jurisprudence.

I'd like to see what any of them were into a month or two before their personal catastrophes. That would be very educational.
