"WASHINGTON (AP) - The FBI's raid on a Democrat's office rippled through Capitol Hill Wednesday, with majority Republicans demanding that the agency surrender documents and other items its agents seized under what lawmakers said were unconstitutional circumstances.
``We think those materials ought to be returned,'' said House Speaker Dennis Hastert, adding that the FBI agents involved ``ought to be frozen out of that (case) just for the sake of the constitutional aspects of it.''
The Saturday night search of Rep. William Jefferson's office on Capitol Hill brought Democrats and Republicans together in rare election-year accord, with both parties protesting agency conduct they said violated the Constitution's separation of powers doctrine.
``Not anyone here is above the law,'' Pelosi told reporters Tuesday. But, she added, ``I think you've seen abuse of power of the executive branch over this weekend.''
A day earlier, Hastert, R-Ill., complained personally to President Bush about raid. Other House officials have predicted that the case would bring all three branches together at the Supreme Court for a constitutional showdown." From my ISP homepage

So, in the dark of night, the Executive Branch ordered a raid on a Congressman's office, the Congress of the United States of America.
Did you know that Congressional Representatives are the only branch of government that is elected directly by the people????
So a Congressman is a scum....some Presidents and some Senators are much bigger scum.
Now, we have the Republican and Democratic Representatives up in arms about Bush's actions UNDER COVER OF DARKNESS.
The Bush madness is escalating.... |
