Corrupt congressman tries to not let door hit him on his way out

Rob Andrews New Jersey mugshotCorrupt congressman tries to not let door hit him on his way out | Rare:
"Following the recently announced retirements of California Reps. George Miller and Henry Waxman, New Jersey Democrat Rob Andrews announced Tuesday he will also retire.
 Andrews, a member of Congress since 1990, will retire in two weeks to join a private law firm in Washington, D.C. During Andrews’ tenure, he sought higher office twice with failed bids for a Senate seat and the governor’s mansion.
 Andrews, a moderate Democrat who almost always voted with the party, was named as one of the most corrupt members of Congress in the last two years. 
The Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington noted in 2013 that “the Garden State Democrat got caught spending campaign funds on perks like a family trip to Scotland, travel to Tinseltown with his daughter, and even a high school graduation party.
Rep. Andrews has also earmarked more than $1.5 million for Rutgers University School of Law, his wife’s employer.”
