It's based on the opinion of the ethics prohibitions and his contract with LSU. You don't need a blog to come to this conclusion. Just read:
Yet his time sheets mention nothing about teaching. He was in DC in committee hearings.
Also his contract with LSU requires 30 hours of work per month and his time sheets don't reflect half that.
Then there's the matter of him billing a LSU on days he was involved in committee hearings.
These aren't opinions, it's right there to read.

In order to receive approval, the individual wishing to teach must establish that: 1. The teaching is part of a regular course of instruction at an established academic institution; 2. All compensation comes from the funds of the institution and none is derived from federal grants or earmarked appropriations; 3. The payment is for services on an ongoing basis, not for individual presentations or lectures; 4. The teacher’s responsibilities include class preparation and student evaluation (for example, grading papers, testing, and homework); 5. The students receive credit for the course taught; 6. The compensation does not exceed that normally received by others at the institution for a comparable level of instruction and amount of work; 7. No official resources, including staff time, are used in connection with the teaching; 8. The teaching does not interfere with official responsibilities nor is it otherwise inconsistent with congressional duties; and 9. The employment or compensation does not represent a significant potential for conflict of interest.

Maybe its a "bookkeeper error". That's a plausible excuse, right?

That's why I said a minimum ethics violation. If so it's really of no consequence but a slap on the wrist.

Compared to the colossal fraud perpetrated upon the people by Obama and his co-conspirator Mary Landrieu with Obamacare, it's nothing really.

Ethics prohibitions and contracts don't have opinions.
The scope of the opinion in 2009-2010. Do you have anything applying to 2013?

Interpretations by an ethics board of ethics rules are most certainly an opinion. And I apologize for my sentence structure: quote:

should have been it's based on reading the contract with lsu and the opinion of the ethics prohibitions.
Eta: if the Ethics rules didn't change then the scope of the opinion doesn't. He is to limit his involvement with LSU to teaching only. He apparently is straining the definition of teaching to running the clinic. Good luck with that. He wasn't to be paid by govt funding. Explain that.
He'll also have to explain why he was being paid for twice the number of hours he was billing LSU.
He may have valid explanations for his hours but as for the ethics rules, we've all had adjunct professors. Obama was one. People who work in govt or private business who teach a few classes. That's what Cassidy was to do according to that letter. That's not what Cassidy was doing. He was practicing medicine when running the clinic, LSU was paying for his continuing education and licensing and the letter clearly states the practice of medicine is prohibited.

Presently encumbered by mobile, however:
No, it plainly does not. Regardless, the rules applicable to member physicians did not apply to his position as a faculty member or to his research. [p. 5]

You mean the paper that endorsed Landrieu yesterday?
