Massa Says Democrats Pushed Ethics Charges
Rep. Eric Massa (D-NY) — who will resign at 5 p.m. today — said that an ethics investigation “was triggered by a comment he made to a staffer at a New Year’s Eve wedding, and intimated that Democrats desperate to pass health care legislation pushed the issue to get Massa, a vocal opponent, out of the way,” the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.
Said Massa: “Now they’ve gotten rid of me and it will pass.”
After dancing and drinking, Massa said a staff member “made an intonation that maybe I should be chasing after the bridesmaid.” He responded by saying, “Well, what I really ought to be doing is frakking you.”
