U.S. Sen. Jeff Sessions of Alabama questioned U.S. Homeland Security secretary Janet Napolitano this morning about the firing of a Colorado immigration agent and asked why the agent's supervisor still has a job, despite the agency's finding that he was not telling the truth about the accessing of a restricted federal database.

"I am not personally familiar with this," Napolitano replied during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Homeland Security. "But I will become personally familiar with it."

The exchange is the first public indication that Sessions is closely following the case of Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent Cory Voorhis.

We have a crooked lawyer nominated as US ATTY for Colorado.

Villafart. She made Chris a fall guy.She should be hauled over the coals for it. I wonder if she will be withdrawn, rather than reveal her crooked, illegal, Chicago style election dealing.

We do not need these crooks in our justice system, using prosecutorial authority for bi-partisan politics. Any effective conservative in Colorado will find trumped federal charges to take him or her out of office.

Thats why Villafart is being nominated.

If Hunter doesn’t run....I’d love to see a DeMint/Sessions ticket.
