I don’t know but if making money makes one an asshole, I guess i am one also.

It makes you a asshole if you use your political power for positive financial gains for yourself while hurting the people you swore to represent.

Even if he didn’t directly cash a check that doesn’t mean his friends didn’t.

Look, I have done the same shit on a smaller scale. I passed on a design job to a friend. The next time we went out for dinner he paid to say thanks.

Then I guess that makes Hillary, Bill and Barack assholes also.

Yes it does.. It is also a matter of scale.

If you read my response it also puts me in the asshole category. Except I told him about the job without the intent of kickbacks.
