Enough with the golf junkets and conferences in the Bahamas. I want a Representative who's not afraid to get caught taking a boat-load of cash in exchange for special interest promises.

Looks like William Jefferson is my man.

The one good thing about corruption? It's willing to work with both parties to get things done.

Jefferson, of Louisiana, also was recorded in a telephone conversation promising to help the unnamed witness with a business venture in Nigeria and Ghana, according to a Federal Bureau of Investigation affidavit filed to support a search warrant for Jefferson's congressional office.
Even our elected representatives are being targeted by the Nigerian Scam! Is nothing sacred!
