His "wife" will get the seat in a landslide.

Or any other Dem that will do as he is told.

They´ll just shorten the amber light on their photo protected stop light in Chicago, again. Five million will flow in in no time.

Daddy will give him a cushy job. BO will give a pardon.

5 mil of ´air´...America is broke...he will NEVER see this money

A grifter, just like his daddy.

WHY???
I have never quit a job so I cannot relate...why do you get millions of dollars for quiting a job???...only Liberals get away with this ´c**p´

He took his last several paychecks under fraudulent circumstances. That should be paidback, or seized if necessary.

Future benefits should be considered forfeit via that criminal fraud.

This isn´t complicated.

The "problem" is it requires people having the courage to do what´s right.

Oh, so he is a Liberal...he will get away with this.....Right??
America, we are done.

Wonder if he got the lifetime SSI disability he was trying to leverage.
Would imagine some of or all of the 5.1 million may have to do with the special election that will have to be conducted.

Next stop, Gig on MSNBC...

Where is the outrage from conservative dims? Are ther any normal people left in that party?

I seriously doubt that JJJ has clinical bipolar disorder.What he really has is entitlement dysfunction disorder.This is what you get when you see your entitlements falling off a cliff one by one.

This guy held a fundraiser to buy Obama´s old seat and raised a million bucks or there about. There´s no reason to have that pile of cash just sitting there when the ole homestead could use some fixing up. It doesn´t matter if he knew the law while doing this,his name and color would get him off the hook.

The problem is him having to give up easy money,alcohol,maybe drugs and don´t forget white women.That´s a lot to ask of anybody to give up.

Maybe the Mayo clinic has massage services now.

How come no one is screaming race in this?

Reply 14: chrissy mathews and the cbc have already added jjj to their list of racist code words.

What the hey, it´s just tax dollars. /s

In a floor speech delivered in the US House early last year, Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. (I-IL), said we need to “add to” the Constitution these “new rights”, ones that he claims will create jobs and bring sweetness and light to every American…Right to a decent home; Right to medical care; Right to a decent education;Right of every student to an iPod and a laptop.

According to the “honorable” representative, the only thing that can “touch” the underprivileged and change their lives is the Constitution…if it can be “added to”. Check out http://charlestonteaparty.org/the-nut-doesnt-fall-far-from-the-tree/

Good riddance at any cost.

He got more than his fair share of reparations. How about he repair the damage and just wander off?

Jesse Jr. and his daddy... scum and scummer.

A reasonable price to pay to rid ourselves of a no-talent, pandering leech.

outrageous that he waited until after the election to resign. outrageous that the voters in his district re-elected him. outrageous that he will receive any more tax payer money, ie congressional retirement. outrageous that he will not be liable to repay what he has stolen.

Doesn´t he still have the beer distributorship that Daddy arranged for him? He can kick back and get drunk and the money will still roll in.

#l1- will be sitting next to, what´s his name? al sharpton .

Getting rid of him for $5M is a bargain compared to the billions he´d vote to waste.

If you think about it by the pound, it´s a lot cheaper getting JJ jr out of the House than it is paying an exterminator to keep ants and spiders out of your kitchen.
