U.S. Rep William Jefferson issued the following statement Wednesday:
"Today, federal law enforcement officers executed search warrants on my Washington, D.C., and New Orleans homes as well as my vehicle in Washington. Subpoenas were issued to me, in my official capacity, to the clerk of the U.S. House of Representatives and to members of my Washington and New Orleans office staff. I do not know the extent or precise nature of this investigation but I am cooperating fully with the authorities."
U.S. Attorney Jim Letten had no comment on Jefferson's statement. He would not say if his office had knowledge of or was involved in the search.
TheNewOrleansChannel.com will update this story as details become available.

If they left it out of the story, he's probably a Dim.
That's SOP with the MSM.

Rep or Dem?A reliable rule of thumb: If the media does not mention the party, it is very safe to assume Democrat.
