When the House returns, will they investigate the raid on Congressman's...
office? For over five years, we have watched the Congress snooze of every imaginable civil rights violation against the people. We have seen an Executive Branch lie to our country about WMDs and the purpose for war. The latest incident, before the raid on Congressman Jefferson's office, saw a jaw-dropping story about the NSA spying and eavesdropping on tens of millions of Americans. But the Congress did nothing.

Now, that one of their own, has been invaded, will this get their attention? I suspect it might. For the first time in a long time, we may see a bi-partisan effort to defend their fortress? Of course, nothing is so important as to interrupt their Memorial Day vacation.

1. Sensenbrenner already held first hearing-last Tues. It was on C-span and
at the meeting, he said he wanted to hold 2-3 more hearings and call Gonzalas in to testify. I do not the status of any upcoming meetings. Jonathan Turley was one witness last week. He did great. Perhaps the transcript is up?
