Demonstrating the Democrats’ commitment to ending the GOP’s “culture of corruption,” House Democrats (more specifically, the Congressional Black Caucus, who are all Democrats) gave Congressman William “Dollar Bill” Jefferson a standing ovation today.
You’ll recall that Congressman Jefferson was the guy who “found” $90,000 in non-sequentially numbered $100 bills neatly bundled together in aluminum foil packets in his own freezer — after an FBI informant passed a $100,000 bribe to Jefferson while wearing a wire.
This is worth a standing ovation? They might push through policies that you might like more (or less) than the GOP, but come on, did you really think that the Democrats would behave any better than the Republicans they’ve displaced?
