I agree that a drug conviction per se is not enough to get terribly
riled up about. But *this* drug conviction came about as a result
of years of openly flaunting a lifestyle which was , as you say,
a terrible example for the people he was governing.  It reflected
a mayoralship which was sliding down into a mire of self-
preoccupation and indifference towards the needs of DC citizens.

It was because of that that the FBI came after him.
