Hastert indicted

Remember Dennis Hastert, the miserable clod who served as Speaker of the House during the terrible years of what has been rightly termed the "culture of corruption"?

Now the Illinois Republican has been indicted on federal charges that he evaded reporting requirements and lied to the FBI. The indictment alleges that Hastert illegally transferred funds to avoid IRS detection. The charges also make a vague reference to unspecified "bad acts." It appears that Hastert committed some sort of misconduct years ago and tried to pay off the victim with $3.5 million.

It's taken them this long to indict him? It really would have been nice if this indictment had happened back in 1999.
