Reply #9: That's what worries me too about this. [View All]

Conasan is saying Dems must be pure enough to throw Jefferson under the bus. But, the Dem Black Caucus is in most ways more friendly to the Progressive Wing of the Dem Party. We already have Capitol Police involved with "detaining" Cynthia McKinney (which I thought was unfair to her...but some DU'ers disagreed) and we know they dragged up old stuff about John Conyers forcing staff members to babysit for his kids (while that shrew Bush Bot Texas Female House member did worse and never had to account for it) ...so I don't fault Rangel for standing with Jefferson. When Jefferson is indicted is the time for him to be booted. If they have so much on Jefferson...where IS that indictment, anyway.

I love Joe Conason...never ever disagreed with anything he said...but this just doesn't seem to be something I can go along with him on. :shrug: It's over a year ago the money was found in the freezer...wasn't that enough to get an indictment way back then?
