BTW, at the time that office Jefferson occupied was actually Speaker Hastert's office ~ as are ALL the offices the Speaker's to hand out as he sees fit.

The AG clearly undertook an armed assault, that is WAR, against the House of Representatives. There's only one appropriate punishment for that ~

No. They are House offices, belonging to the House as a body, to hand out as it sees fit. The speaker is elected by, and can be removed by, the vote of the House membership. The Speaker is a is the closest thing the USA has to a prime minister, a "first among equals" whose power rests on the assent of his peers.

No American who wasn't a member of Congress has ever cast a vote for Speaker of the House.

Well, at least you're not getting overwrought about it.

The whole Jefferson case strikes me as a ¿Quien es mas macho? BS debate. A lot of strutting and posturing. A pointless pissing contest.

If the FBI had just called the Sergeant at Arms and asked for permission for the search, he would probably have granted permission, and there would be no dispute. But no, that would make too much sense.
