WHOSE CORRUPTION IS IT?

This is William Jefferson. He was just reelected as Lousiana's 2nd District Congressman. "Everyone" is saying that he's a crook.

Then why is he running around loose, much less running for office?

Early this year, the government was reportedly investigating him for bribery. In March, some of his aides were subpoenaed by a Grand Jury. In May, his home was searched and the F.B.I. made off with (it is reported) $90,000 from his frezer which (they have leaked) was bribe money they paid him. 'Marked' money they say.

Dennis Hastert had Jefferson's Congressional offices searched and documents seized.

Yet, this man is still on the loose. He has run for reeletion and, in the absence of an arrest or charges, he has been voted back into Congress.

Now he's Nancy Pelosi's problem.

Why?

Maybe it's because the Justice Department, which is investigating him, is just as incompetent and unfit for office as the rest of this Bush government. It's another US government miscarriage in Louisiana like FEMA's.

The Flapping Jaws all over talk radio will turn this into Democratic Party corruption. But it's not. This matter should have been dealt with months ago --- months ago when Pelosi took away his committee assignments. Now the Democrats, just like the rest of the country are stuck with this guy again!
