Rennie questions Dodd's home in Ireland

The Courant's Kevin Rennie is questioning Sen. Chris Dodd about his Dodd's home in Ireland. But Dodd dismissed the questions as being politically-motivated.

So let me get this straight..Dood is a politician so we can't ask him political questions, am I reading this correctly?

Typical Dodd fashion, blaming it on politics instead of explaining how he was able to buy 2/3 of his Irish home for a quarter of its value.
We need limits in the Senate for this exact reason. Senators like Kennedy and Dodd are not in touch with the real world and feel they can do whatever they want.
We all know that he will run again and get all his cronies to back him. So, in order to beat him, Caligiuri or Schiff or whoever chooses to fight him will need loads of money.
It is a shame that there are so many citizens who don't see this man for what he is, an arrogant politician who will do anything he can for personal gain.

Now we know why Dodd was so quiet when former Governor Rowland got caught doing the exact same thing.

Does this estate in Ireland have a hot tub?

Whining about one or two senators diminishes the real issue. In Washington D.C. alone there are probably hundreds of elected representatives as out of touch as the two discussed here. We need term limits. Until that happens just don't vote for incumbents.

so let me get this straight-the town manager, the supt of schools and the police chief are town employees so we can't ask them political questions, am i reading this correctly?
