Recent ethics cases — such as those involving Reps. Maxine Waters (left), Eric Massa and Sen. John Ensign — suggest that aides could be invaluable sources to report violations.

Constitution Connection
Article I of the Constitution, Section 3, Clause 6:
"The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments. When sitting for that Purpose, they shall be on Oath or Affirmation. When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside: And no Person shall be convicted without the Concurrence of two thirds of the Members present."

Connection Explanation

   It is against the constitution for members of the Senate or House to behave with disorderly behavior, and the punishment is to expel said member. Article 1 that talks about the rules and regulations of the Legislative Branch, it was made to keep members of the congress in place.

  The article "Congress Delays on Whistle-blowers" is about Congress turning a deaf ear when it comes to them breaking the law. Many congressmen and women such as Rep. Maxine Waters and Sen. John Ensign are currently accused of crimes, but have jet to be looked at deeper because of their power in Congress. whistle-blowers are employees that report wrong doing and misdemeanors that are committed by  congress.

   I agree with whistle-blowers, they are doing the right thing to try and keep this country honest. If the congress isn't even honest or getting penalized for their wrong doings then why would the rest of America. Those Senates and Representatives that are breaking the law should be punishes as the Constitution describes,they should be stripped of their titles.
