Congress gets a taste .....

.... of the Police State they helped the Bushites create, beginning after 9/11, if not before.

Doesn't feel very good, eh, guys and gals, to not be secure in your own offices, homes and personal effects?

Welcome to our world.

Oh, and by the way, this crap started with the ridiculous war on drugs, which has to stop! The government is more addicted to drug money , than anyone is to drugs.

Some people are just too dumb to live and it seems to me that many of those people are in Washhington, D.C.

House Leaders Demand Return of Seized Files - New York Times:

"The demand, by Speaker J. Dennis Hastert, Republican of Illinois, and Representative Nancy Pelosi of California, the Democratic leader, underscored the degree of the anger generated among members of both parties on Capitol Hill by the search on Saturday night at the office of Representative William J. Jefferson, Democrat of Louisiana, who has been accused of accepting bribes.

'The Justice Department was wrong to seize records from Congressman Jefferson's office in violation of the constitutional principle of separation of powers, the speech or debate clause of the Constitution, and the practice of the last 219 years,' Mr. Hastert and Ms. Pelosi said in a rare joint statement.

Mr. Jefferson made a similar demand in federal court. He called for federal agents to be prohibited from reviewing seized files and computer records."
