Speaking of doing nothing...
Gerry Studds (D-Mass), was found by the House Ethics Committee to have engaged in sexual relationships with adolescent pages - he refused to apologize for any impropriety (he turned his back in contempt as the article of censure was being read on the House floor), but went on to serve six more terms in Congress until voluntarily retiring in 1996.
Congressman Mel Reynolds (D-Ill), who was convicted of corruption and of having a sexual relationship with a 16-year-old campaign worker (and sentenced to seven years in prison), was pardoned in 2001 by outgoing President Bill Clinton.
oh and Good riddance, Mark Foley---
