The documents seized in the FBI raid on the offices of Rep. William Jefferson (D-LA) remain unread by Justice Department investigators, pending a federal Appeals Court ruling scheduled for August 27.

IT will be the press investigating - LOL

Ok, youhave a point here. However, there is already an investigation going on, of Jefferson, and that alone whould be all that is needed, the whole nasty ball of corruption ought to be laid bare by that.

But you do have a point. The Dims seem to think they are above that law and above investigation. So really, who is the elitist here? Just more Dim spin I suppose.

Some mighty strange shenanigans going on in Conyer's office at the time: his bagman (one of many) Boyd was left holding same in an FBI investigation and received a new identity, citizenship, and a passport from Mugabe of Zimbabwe, of all people.

Conyers got him outa town in the nick of time. Way out of town. The Congressional Black Caucus is/was up to its eyeballs in wild, weird, and wacky West African deals. Clinton and Ron Brown are gone, but these bozos, with their safe seats for life, scam on. I heard the Africans are pretty good at scamming them right back, too. Diamonds, Uranium, Gold, Oil, Tropical Hardwoods, Cosmetic Oils, etc. Wilson right in there scamming with them.

Your tax dollars at work.

Fedora scores! Surely this info has to get noticed by more reporters and editors one of these days...... Please, how much longer can the MSM continue to shill for the contemptible babbling sleazebag Joe Wilson?????
