A Democrat in Louisana has a $100K in bribe money stashed in his freezer, and maybe more elsewhere. He's still serving in office.
I don't much like Lewis - I think he's a corrupt RINO, but isn't it funny that the Justice department has trouble finding let alone prosecuting Democrat graft, but seem entirely focused on Republicans.
I think most of Congress is corrupted by money, but this is probably just another pre-election Democrat op, run by Clinton Justice department politico hold-overs who Bush just couldn't bear to fire. The Bush family is above that sort of thing, while the Clinton Democrats fired every last U.S. Attorney, and politicized the entire Justice Department. The Clintonistias made certain that while a Republican might one day occupy the Oval Office after Clinton, that NO Republican would every again be able to run the federal government with the political operatives the Clinton's installed there. From CIA, to State, to Commerce, to Justice, the Democrats are being paid by taxpayers to run full-time anti-Bush operations, using the authority of their positions. We might as well abolish civil service altogether, and just do a "clean sweep" every election.
But what do I know ..
