Al Green, D-Houston, and Gwendolyn Guice, right, all shake hands in front of the new homes built for Butler and Guice in New Orleans, Thursday, Feb. 22, 2007. The two residents got the keys to what are believed to be the first homes built in the Lower Ninth Ward since Hurricane Katrina hit 18 months ago.

CNN: House GOP to object to Jefferson’s Homeland Security seat

House Republican Whip Roy Blunt, R-Missouri, announced Wednesday that Republicans will object on the House floor to Rep. William Jefferson, D-Louisiana, getting a seat on the House Homeland Security Committee.

Jefferson is entangled in a federal bribery investigation related to his dealings with a telecommunications company. Federal investigators found $90,000 in cash in his freezer in 2005 after Jefferson allegedly accepted a $100,000 bribe from an FBI informant. Despite the investigation, Jefferson was re-elected to a ninth term to his New Orleans’ seat in a run-off election in December.

So much for the “CULTURE OF CORRUPTION” that the Democrats painted the GOP with last November.

When Jefferson is indicted, will the voters even notice?

You betcha…….

The cold hard cash in the freezer is a “CLASSIC.”

Update:

The Politico (Via M/M) and The Hill have more.
