Brit Hume was faking laughter this morning about Wm Jefferson and the Dems

[kentuck]

He said after all the bad publicity with the guy coming out of the courtroom with trenchcoat and gangster hat, referring to Abramoff, the Democrats must be terribly disappointed that one of their own was caught with cash in his freezer. As if that erased all the Republican crimes? My opinion was that maybe Brit Hume is not happy because Bush chose Tony Snow over him to be the new press secretary - after all those years he used to play tennis with his Poppy? No appreciation from Junior. Could it be?

1. Hume's probably disappointed because the Dems actually

showed they had some ethics, unlike the repukes, by kicking Jefferson off the committee.
I'm still wondering why he hasn't been arrested since the cash was found almost a year ago.
Was this a set-up?:tinfoilhat:

2. Was it really almost a year ago?

I guess I didn't follow the story carefully enough. I thought it was recently.

3. I believe the cash was found in August of last year. nt

4. they can't prove an official duty quid pro quo - yet- -. It's consulting/

introduction to important people fee.

If use of the prestige of the office to make money was a crime there would be no one on Capitol Hill or in the White House or working for the WH "Executive" not in jail..

But Jefferson smells "dirty" and I would not bet against an eventual indictment.

5. Yes, and we deprived the GOP of a chance to...

smear the Dems as being "corrupt" too.

6. Sorry, but Brit (and all the DAMNED wingunts) won/WIN again

Brit was MOCKING Juan WILLIAMS (again). He and GOD-DAMNED Billy KRISTOL were MOCKING us.

The point was that Brit (or Billy KRISTOL) said Wm Jefferson is his "favorite Democrat" because NOTHING the Dems could come up with could deflate the $90 thousand IN THE FREEZER.

That PELOSI is an upscale witch who could INVEST $90 MIL, not put it in a GOD DAMNED FREEZER.

That the Dem strategy of pinning corruption on the REPUKES was undermined by Mr JEFFERSON's $90 thousand FUCKING in the FREEZER.

Get It?????????????

The Repukes have all these HUMONGOUS CRIMINALS, and the Dems would like to CALL ATTENTION TO THEM, but the Dem message is undermined by the NINETY thousand IN THE DOGGDAMNED FREEZER.

Plus, the GODDAMNED REPUKES have their usual WEDGE of having the Dems castigate a MINORITY!!!!!!!!!!!11

Do I have to spell out EVERYTHING???????1

7. Ummmmm..........

I'm quite sure that you really meant $90 THOUSAND.

You did mean $90 THOUSAND..........didn't you???

8. On edit: Yeah. Was it worth the italics? n/t
