Cold Hard Cash

Or The Democratic “Culture of Corruption” Revealed. I’ve been waiting to say that.

Washinton Post : Rep. William J. Jefferson (D-La.), the target of a 14-month public corruption probe, was videotaped accepting $100,000 in $100 bills from a Northern Virginia investor who was wearing an FBI wire, according to a search warrant affidavit released yesterday.

A few days later, on Aug. 3, 2005, FBI agents raided Jefferson's home in Northeast Washington and found $90,000 of the cash in the freezer, in $10,000 increments wrapped in aluminum foil and stuffed inside frozen-food containers, the document said.

Line him up with the rest of the crooks. Like I said before, Politician often equals crook.

Hat Tip, Others: Just about everybody.
