Hang on a minute

Hastert and other Republican Senators are running to the defense of besieged Democrat William Jefferson? That doesn't sound right. Unless of course Republicans are concerned that the search of Jefferson's office is a prelude to what they can expect during future justice department investigations into corruption. After all a corrupt Democratic Senator would appear to be an anomaly compared to the rampant corruption in the Republican party.

Mochi,

We both know that corruption is equally spread throughout both parties.

BUT...

My theory is that the House fancies itself above the law and wants to maintain that status. They are afraid of the precedent this sets.

Just a theory...

At the federal level the Republicans definitely beat the Democrats. They are afraid of the precedent because of what they stand to lose.

Mochi,

I couldn't refute you on that.

Howdy, WSC! Hope you're well!

I have hardly blogged in the past 6 weeks but I have completed my move- I'm just wondering- there's still corruption in Washington? I won't believe it.
