I’ve posted at La Shawn’s site also.

Mr. Williams’ firm received the money which. His firm has other expenditures besides Mr. Williams’ salary from his firm. Mr. Williams may not have actually been personally enriched (with a higher salary) due to the transaction.

I’ve said at LB’s, that he was wrong for not disclosing the deal and he admitted to the wrong doing and has apologized.

And while I agree that the federal government shouldn’t spend money like this (as it is taxpayer dollars) there are a lot of people who receive money from the federal government and for messaging purposes and to hold a HIGHER standard for Mr. Williams and say he must give it back is not right. Again. I agree that this is money that shouldn’t be spent by the federal government. I just feel that we are picking on one guy here and if we are going to have the standard that we should hold the standard all across the board.

Hey, we might all get rebate checks again from the government due to a surplus again….
