Rep. Randy "Duke" Cunningham pleaded guilty Monday morning to conspiring to take bribes in exchange for using his influence to help a defense contractor get business. "I can't undo what I have done but I can atone," Cunningham says in an emotional press conference.
And how is the Duke going to atone? Write a tell-all book that his supporters and flunkie-friends will buy up by the thousands to inflate it's sales and refill his bank account? Or as a feudal samurai of Imperial Japan atoned for failing his Daimyo lord?
The man's admitting selling his Honor for filthy silver, my expectations are low.
