He may have misused monies provided by hard-working Democrats to help him get elected. And he may have falsely claimed a residency he didn't have, thus depriving another, more worthy Democrat of the opportunity to represent his true neighbors and constituents. I've no tolerance for such abuse of our trust. Besides, it's hard to hold others to a standard we won't evenly apply to our own.

And besides, the original article you posted only showed that a local politician tendered his resignation for reasons unknown. That's newsworthy enough no matter what his reasons.
