Daily Kos: The OTHER Scandal Hastert Doesn't Want Voters Talk...

The actual location of the property has been the subject of debate--some say it's about 5 miles away from the proposed Parkway, others say it's closer to 3.  Either way, the fact remains that Hastert's land--or rather, Hastert himself---benefited greatly from the Prairie Parkway pork barrel appropriation.  

Indeed, it was just three months after the bill was passed that Hastert sold the property.  Hastert maintains, of course, that the location of his property had nothing to do with his earmark efforts.
