Actually, Mr. Graham and I still disagree.  While Mr. Graham
appears to only be concerned with the indiscretion of one
"green" politician, I am concerned about the ethical pitfalls
of the entire system, including Mr. Graham's beloved NRP 
program, which has even fewer checks and balances than the
city's municipal campaign financing.

If any group is responsible for lax ethical standards, it the 
party in power.  The Greens can do no more than call for an
investigation, they cannot clean the system up on their own
initiative.  I am trying to spotlight the flaws in the 
system, Mr. Zimmerman just happened to fall though one.
