Jefferson's nothing more than a common criminal. What was the FBI supposed to do?

I bet if Democrats were in charge and there were FBI raids on Republicans, they'd keep thier fat mouths shut.

This was settled in 1972 or so.

Hastert is full of S#$t!!! He obviously doesn't understand the concept of separation of powers. That being said, I think we need to find a new Speaker of the House.

" “When I raise my right hand and swear to uphold the Constitution of the United States, I mean it,” Boehner said, referring to the oath members take at the beginning of each Congress. “[Justice Department employees] take the same oath, so somebody better start reading the Constitution down there.” "

I think they did uphold their oath.......didn't they just execute the part about protecting the United States from enimies both foreign and DOMESTIC?

“The institution has a right to protect itself against the executive branch going into our offices and violating what is the Speech and Debate Clause that essentially says, ‘That’s none of your business, executive branch,’” Hoyer said.
__________________________
Am I totally missing the point here? They are saying their offices are off limits for investigations unless they clear it? How on earth are they interpreting it this way?

What exactly is the Speech and Debate clause anyway?
