The Congress is giving a ethics pass to William Jefferson of LA. on his cold cash is this right or wrong?

Question

When is it right to allow a Congressman on the defense panel to be given a pass when he was caught red handed taking a $100,000 bride by the FBI? And the Democrat Congress is turning the head as if it never happened. IS this their idea of leadership? Or is it they will blame Bush for it some how?

Ok Defend him but I would like to see some one on the left address this with logic and honesty and not try to spin this.

And if you think this is all look at the record of their first 100 days promised to cut and run from Iraq. We know Obama just empowered Islamic extremism by saying he would attack Pakistani and this will incite the whole Muslim world. Is this not treason?

I ask is their one person on the left who is truthful?

He is under a criminal investigation and the so called ethic’s have dropped theirs to wait and see if he is found guilty in stead of dealing their won.

So far not one person on the left is willing to face their dirt. No logic, No morals, No guts as all you want is power and “WE THE PEOPLE” see this and know this say good by to 08.

Also you own defeat on the left. Iraq and truth and elections.

Answer 1

This is typical of the Democratic congress. They crucify the GOP when something minor happens, but they turn a blind eye to their own.

Remember Democrats, the public is noticing your failures.

Answer 2

Jefferson hasn't gotten a pass, its still under investigation and, if you remember, there is still a requirement that the FBI gets its information with a modicum of legality, and they just lost part of that in court. Don't make the mistake of blaming the entire party for one persons failing, both side can sling equal amounts of mud and its all to no purpose since neither party is pure as the driven snow. An individual is an individual, and they make their own bad decisions all by themselves. Like pedophiles and men who take mistresses while yammering about Clinton's.
The Democrats never did promise to 'cut and run'. They tried to cut funding or ask for real ways to judge and they got some, remember the eight out of fifteen benchmarks? All the cut and run talk was delivered by Republicans who wanted you to think the only alternative to 'stay the course' was 'cut and run'.
It seems to me the Muslim world loves to be incited.
A cartoon, a joke, all have served as impetus for violence.
Why spend so much time worrying about their sensitivity when they would just find another excuse to do what they want to in the first place, Israel, seven-month old cartoons halfway around the world, women showing their bodies, its all the same to them. We can't make them happy, why try?

Answer 3

Sir your crazy, he is still under indictment and more will happen to him when he is tried. Where are you getting your info from, Oh probably fox or rush the dumb station and the Oxycontiny man. He has been forbidden by the congress and he can not head a committee. You cant do more until he has been tried. Now you come back an beg Dem's pardon you are the one wrong.

Answer 4

Not true...they stripped him of his place on the Ways and Means committee...more action will be taken if he is found guilty.
