James Anthony Traficant Jr (May 8, 1941 – September 27, 2014) was a Democratic, and later independent, politician and member of the United States House of Representatives from Ohio. He represented the 17th Congressional District, which centered on his hometown of Youngstown and included parts of three counties in northeast Ohio's Mahoning Valley. He was expelled from the House after being convicted of taking bribes, filing false tax returns, racketeering and forcing his aides to perform chores at his farm in Ohio and houseboat in Washington, D.C.[1] He was sentenced to prison and released on September 2, 2009, after serving a seven-year sentence.
Traficant died on September 27, 2014 as the result of injuries sustained in an accident that occurred several days earlier when his tractor flipped over as he was driving



After the Republicans took control of the House in 1995, Traficant tended to vote more often with the Republicans than with his own party. On the issue of abortion, Traficant voted with the position of the National Right to Life Committee 95% of the time in the 105th Congress, and 100% of the time in the 106th and 107th Congresses

You're going to condemn a man for life because he clerked for a corrupt politician when he was a kid and had absolutely nothing to do with Traficants crimes? That's absurd. Do you have any idea how congressional clerks are selected?
 
he picked him when he became a republican in everything but name



he is a far right dem who will go trafficant on us you fools
 
desh is off the rails. she's already burnt thing1 and watermark post-election. she is super done-zo

Yeah, there really isn't anyone for her to feud with standing behind Watermark. Getting past him is the football equivalent of beating the punter or kicker en route to scoring a return touchdown, except that punters and kickers don't usually possess the tools of Marxist revolution. Lorax has been famously burned by other JPP leftists, however, such as Darla, so I wouldn't consider him a measuring stick of her insanity.
