CONGRESS: Loopholes Allowed for Long Vegas Vacation.

In recent years, the lawmakers and staffers lucky enough to snag an invite to the annual Consumer Electronics Show were largely forced by House and Senate rules to limit their fun in Las Vegas to one day.

But through the clever use of loopholes, this year, about a dozen Members and staffers (and family) were able to convert the convention into a four-day junket, with the Consumer Electronics Association still picking up the bulk of the tab.

And it’s all within the rules.

Remember when Obama was slamming corporations for having meetings in Las Vegas?
