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.

Yes, this will be the FIRST QUESTION on the lips of every MSM reporter & commentator...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

I made a funny!

ROTFLMAO! ROTFPIMP!

Government is infested with these types of unelected representatives [a.k.a. community organizers]. Their entire job is to contact other people and try to suck money from them. The truly disgusting thing is that the taxpayer winds up paying the tab for this activity somewhere down the line.

It's just another case of government forcing the American People to fund their own destruction. We have GOT to rid ourselves of these parasites.

Push this! Rush, Beck, Hannity, anyone who will investigate it! The cover is gone and the rats are scurrying now. Shine a light and expose, document, and, when we`re back in power, WE WILL PRESECUTE! Think of ALL the “culture of corruption” stuff we`ll have to use for the 2012 election.

Elenor will have a time of soul searching. Or at least I hope so.

She's a Democrat. She has no soul because she sold it along the way.

One would think that if you are leaving a message on a voicemail, you are acknowledging that you understand you are being recorded. Wonder how they’ll twist that one.

This is what happens when you combine a life of affirmative-action promotion with an addiction to power. Throw in the Marxist part just for good measure.

Voila! You have created Ms. Norton Holmes.

Dang, what a money whore. I am surprised she did not leave a price list.

Who could have ever imagined that creating a “Homeland Security” Dept. would grow into just another big government spend-o-rama ? (sarc)

The Democrat Culture of Corruption Hall of Shame:

Eddie Bernice Johnson
Charile Rangel
Maxine Waters
Eleanor Holmes Norton

No trends here at all.

Somebody should take the car with the big speaker on top they used in the Blues Brothers movie and just drive around DC with this recording blaring 24 x 7 at about 90 decibels.

The truth is a real b*tch is it not?

hearing the audio is even more devastating than the transcript — b/c her vocal inflections, her utter DISbelief and dismay that the lobbyist has not known enough to contribute to her already, conveys everything......

the combination of “don’t you know WHO I AM?” with “how is it even POSSIBLE that you have not already sent me money” and “how is it that you don’t realize how many billions of dollars in public funds I control in your ‘sector’???” etc.

she does all she can to convey that sense of incredulity that any peon lobbyist would not know enough to send her money

“(Note: the first few seconds of the recording, where the name of the lobbyist is said by Holmes Norton, have been redacted by the source.)”

Eddie Bernice Johnson
Charile Rangel

No trends here at all.

Who am I missing?

William Jefferson, Democrat, Louisiana
James Traficant, Democrat, Ohio
Alcee Hastings, Democrat, Florida
Did Traficant win his primary?

Traficant is challenging the Democratic incumbent, Tim Ryan, and Republican Jim Graham for the seat he held for 17 years before his 2002 convictions on racketeering, bribery and tax evasion charges.

I remember when the DC moron element elected her she had some problems with having not paid her federal taxes for several years. I believe her excuse was she thought her husband paid them. What a corrupt, degenerate loser. If she was capable of being embarrassed, she should be.
