That's where Rep. William Jefferson (D-LA) kept his ill gotten gains.

Make sure you alll remember that he was actually given 500 grand by the feds and they marked it so they could use it later as evidence. The fact that it took so long to indict after they found ONLY 90Grand left in his freezer is a freaking travesty. This wasnt just cash, this was marked FBI cash that was given to him by an FBI sting informant. Ha hah! Take that William Jefferson...hey you know all you need to do is add Clinton to his last name and you have a real criminal! In her first few days as leader she stood beaming next to this slimy thief, and then in her infinite wisdom Nancy Pelosi had the gall to name WJ to a special committee after running on an anti corruption ticket. He was lauded for his courage by a number of groups and dem leaders who insisted the truth would come out. Well it did, and he is indicted...How do you know a politican is lying? His lips are moving...Duncan Hunter for President.

Bet that guy hasn't even been punished yet. Am I right? And what about that other gov official got caught molesting male pages a few months back. He says "I'm gay" so he's off the hook for child molestation now? How'd I do? Pretty close?

It was bribe money, so he had to keep it cold. ;-)
And while the poor were suffering, he got two helicopters to take him to his house so he could rescue the freezer.
He's consistent with his priorities, but he still got voted back into office. Go figure.

So he was moonlighting overseas. It wasn't treason, was it?
