Eleanor will have a time of soul searching.

Unlikely. Like most 'Rats, one cannot search for what was never there in the first place.

"I’m handling the largest economic development project in the United States now, the Homeland Security Compound of three buildings being built on the uh, old St. Elizabeth’s hospital site in the District of Columbia"

Nobody sees the irony of a Homeland Security Compound on the grounds of a former insane asylum.

Looks like the inmates are still in charge.

She’s not the sharpest knife in the drawer! Thank you Mr. Breitbart for exposing the thug tactics of members of Congress to eke funds out of constituents. If we can call a lobbyist a constituent. I find myself not sympathizing at all with the lobbyist, by the way.

Just ask anyone in the News Rooms at MSNBC, NBC, CBS, ABC, or CNN about this!!

Or the media spokesperson for the CBC. While he/she is defending Rangel maybe Norton will come up.

She is the "shadow" delegate to the House of Representatives from Washington, D.C. She has no vote.

She is also one of the worst slave masters on the D.C. plantation. She came out against vouchers for school children and helped cancel the program.

D.C. consistently polls at the bottom of school districts nation wide even though the per capita expense for kids is over$9,000 per year.

The Dem leadership in this country is an embarrassment.

According to the article, it is a misdemenor.

Personally I think that this is another way to betray the country and its people and I think of it as a capital offense.

I find it especially amusing that Norton is trolling for bucks when she is not even a full voting member of the House.

Why isnt she a full voting memeber?

Relax folks. Just an oversight on the honorable Congresswoman's part.

She just misspoke

She didn't know that a voice mail would actually record her words.

A friend came in from out of town.

She a had a flat tire.

If the contractor was willing to release this tape I just wonder...

Some good voicemail systems log the phone number of the incoming call, if it could be determined this call was made from her office then that could cost her her job no matter what color she is.

An excellent choice for where the nuts are to run the asylum.

If Breitbart has a copy of the message, it will soon be on Fox. In any case, a copy should be delivered to the FBI, even though we all know that it would be a waste of time.

Homeland Security Compound?

Yeah - kind of like Lubyanka Square or Prinz-Albrecht-Straße.

If this happened in Maryland, I can see the lobbyist getting prosecuted for illegal wiretapping - like Linda Tripp.

I am not a lawyer. I don’t even play one on TV but I’m reasonably certain that’s some level of crime.

"Crimes" are for the little people. As I pointed out to someone else, the lobbyist is going to be lucky if he/she doesn't end up in jail...
