AUTO-PIMPING: With the Bush administration entering the scandal-rich years (years 5-7 of an administration are usually the biggest, for a lot of reasons), I should probably plug The Appearance of Impropriety: How the Ethics Wars Have Undermined American Government, Business, and Society, which I coauthored with Peter Morgan back during the Clinton Administration’s scandal-rich period. Administrations may change, but the analysis, I dare to suggest, is evergreen.
