Capitol Hell

Louisiana's Democrat Congresscritter William Jefferson has his knickers in a twist because the FBI executed a search warrant in his office over the weekend. Gee, it's getting to the point where a crook just can't catch a break. Also discovered was 90 big ones in his freezer, neatly wrapped in aluminum foil. (Talk about your frozen assets!) No word yet on where the other 10K went.

Tellingly, even Republicans are decrying this bit of law enforcement. One cannot help but wonder why? What are they hiding? For some reason, people on both sides of the aisle are all up in arms about this, with even Speaker Hastert whining about the FBI executing a search warrant on a sitting member of Congress. Who did he think would perform the search? The Girl Scouts?

Mark Twain had it right: "It could probably be proven by facts and figures that there is no distinctly American criminal class. Except Congress."

Think the bastards'll concoct a "bipartizan" act to grant themselves diplomatic immunity? Wouldn't be a bit surprised.
Shoot the politricksters FIRST...then the illegals!

Someone else said it best: Rope. Gallows. Politician. Some assembly required.
