***UPDATE: My understanding is this is a weekly radio show that Rep. Massa has done with WKPQ nearly every Sunday for about 3 years. Probably won't get much more until tomorrow, calls all day are not being returned.
Content of Massa's Radio Broadcast
Hornell, N.Y. - Rep. Eric Massa, who is scheduled to resign his congressional seat Monday, March 8 at 5 p.m., spoke his mind on a radio program that originated in Hornell, N.Y.
He claims the investigation of the House Ethics Committee deals with the New Year's wedding of a staffer and a misunderstood incident which took place in the presence of many.
He says nothing was ever said to him that would lead him to believe a staffer "felt uncomfortable" and puts it on a third staffer for bringing the whole matter forward.
He blames Democrats in Washington for putting people up to this to "get him out of the way" so Healthcare Reform can be passed.
“They will stop at nothing to pass this health care bill, and now they’ve gotten of me, and it will pass. You connect the dots. You ask the question… Why is it, from February 8 until now, no one said a word to me about anything!” Massa says on the air.
He details experiences he had in the U.S. Navy from which others have drawn different and varied conclusions.
The audio drops out but it appears he's holding his most recent CAT Scans and points to what's either a tumor or scar tissue.
His tone is that of someone seriously reconsidering resignation. He states repeatedly that he's retiring Monday.
