So, what else is new? Is Governor Edwards still in prison?
Not even close. But if his opponent supports partial birth abortion, she is also scum.
Was it found there or not?
Maybe William and Thomas Jefferson could share the holiday, and the popular William Jefferson Clinton could also get in on the act.
I remember that outgoing Speaker Hastert was very concerned about Congressman Jefferson's "civil liberties." Maybe that's why Hastert may be heading back soon to IL so he can play golf with Bob Michel.
Jefferson's cold cash really paid off...
There is a very active Republican Party in Louisiana. The problem here is that Louisiana still has an open primary system. If you can get 50% +1 on election day, you win. If not, then the top two finishers, regardless of party.
Don't forget that the majority of our House delegation is Republican, as well as our junior Senator. He may be the senior Senator after Landrieu runs for re-election; the reason she is in office is her strong showing among black New Orleanians.
Thanks for the explanation. BTW, I wasn't insinuating Washington State was any better....if you could see what passes for a legislator around here....

Can they draft Brett Favre after he retires?
""I'm a little worried about what this is going to say to the nation," said City Councilwoman Cynthia Hedge-Morrell, a Carter supporter."
Nothing we did not already know about New Orleans.
With a governor and mayor like they have in Louisiana and New Orleans, what would you expect? The governor refused Federal help 3 days before Katrina hit. The Mayor abandoned the plan to evacuate in favor of putting up the people in the Dome, THEN refused Red Cross help. Somehow Federal money to improve the levys evaporated. These people got re-elected. And you wonder at Jefferson's re-election?
William Jefferson (D) LA, no relation to the Cleaning Store tycoon, (possibly named after Clinton) was defended by the Congressional Black Caucus - "not convicted" etc. Well said; BUT, shouldn't the elite of Congress be held to higher standards? The GOP usually (not always) does, as the "accused" frequently RESIGN! The Desm embrace all walk of thieves; especially at election stealing time.
It's a rule to live by...
there are as many republican crooks as democrat crooks...Except that republican VOTERS always remove the scum. Even the appearance of scum is enough to defeat a republican {republican candidates take note--this is a GOOD THING, and you can expect it to continue}, but democrats re-elect creeps and criminals all the time.
Count on Conservative VOTERS...not republican politicians.
