Raid on Jefferson's office was legal!

Chief U.S. District Judge Thomas F. Hogan said members of Congress are not above the law.

Now THIS is a revolutionary concept. You know, generally, it's a good idea to obey the laws you're elected to uphold.

And it's generally a bad idea to argue that a box of money in a refridgerator infringes upon a Congressman's ability to carry out the duties of his office.

However, bribery certainly does impugn that ability.

Anyone want to bet how long it will be again before we hear cries of racism again? I'm betting it'll be said on tonight's news.

Makes you wonder why Dennis Hastert tried to circle the wagons to protect this creep. Makes me wonder why I should vote for a GOP Congressman to assure that Hastert stays speaker. Nevermind, I'm done wondering the answer to that question. If there's one good thing Bush's justice department has done, this is it.
