    WTF: Fox News Story ....

    The Ohio Democrat in 2002 became only the fifth person in history to be expelled from the House, after he was convicted on federal bribery and racketeering charges. Three were kicked out for siding with the South during the Civil War.

    What the hell does this even mean? Good proof reading I suppose.

    Traficant was a true piece of work. I remember watching this guy as a source of entertainment. He would get on the House floor with his toupee placed sideways and ramble/yell semi-coherently about his hatred of environmentalists, Israel, immigrants, drugs, the IRS, NAFTA... awkwardly peppering his rants with Star Trek references. He was one of the last conservative Democrats, also one of the strangest and most corrupt.
