To the Democrats: Man overboard! As in, you might really, really want to toss Jefferson overboard. He's a disgrace to the party and every single day that passes makes you all look worse. Jefferson has been quoted as saying prosecutors have chosen, "to view the facts in the worst possible light."
That would apparently be the freezer light. (Which leads to the inevitable: I've heard of cold, hard cash before….)
I have no idea if Jefferson will or will not prevail in court. However, from a political point of view he is damaging to the entire party right now.
UPDATE: Now, at last, the truth comes out. Will Collier over at VodkaPundit has the dirt.
Gaius,
Yea, William Jefferson got caught. WOW, what a scoop (NOT).
Gaius, I like you, but why don’t you get REAL. I was watching some Los Angeles City Council Meetings last night on channel 35 last night since I have a REAL vested legal interest in Councilman Bernard Parks, Councilman Eric Garcetti and MORE. I really couldn’t believe what I was hearing. I’ll be real polite. Lot’s of Garbage. I am being real polite. Democrat or Republican? What’s the difference?
Most people think I am a nutcase. No problem for me. I get a lot of E-mail’s. Let me give you just a peek of what’s legally coming down. Here are some quote’s:
“The challenge is to get those good guys in law enforcement to testify against the bad guys. It is very, very difficult.
Even the good guy cops protect the bad guy cops for their perception/belief it is for the greater good. It’s kind of like family, if your kids do something bad, you may discipline them, but you would certainly not allow someone else to discipline them.”
“Hi, Mario
I understand your exhaustion.
I’m fortunate to be in a position to make a difference.
There is no better quote for what you have experienced than… “you must fight fire with fire”
I have the firepower, but it is not without sacrifice. You/I must not have fear. I know you do not.
I have some very powerful lawyers… lawyers that have no fear and have the juice. Fortunately, I also have the political connections that protect my position.”
“Nice work on the website.
Mario, there are very powerful forces trying to prevent your information and other collaborating information against the LAPD and the City of LA from coming forward. But it will and it is.”
I GOT LOT’S, LOT’S MORE.
So Gaius, you like Patterico (aka) Los Angeles County Assisstant District Attorney Patrick Frey? You really believe what he says from this blog of his?
“I think this is great. Everyone in LAPD should know that any suspect at any time could actually be an undercover Internal Affairs officer, testing the arresting officer’s courtesy and honesty. This can only increase public confidence in LAPD. In addition, it gives prosecutors the information necessary to review past arrests by this officer. We seek justice in the D.A.’s office, and don’t want to convict innocent people. Stings like this help us achieve justice.”

Mario – you are completely off base. Don’t do this again, please. Threadjacking is not polite.
Gaius?
I’m off base? It’s your blog, but I feel I am not off base. You’re talking politics and I’m talking politics.
How can I be off-base?

Your comment has nothing whatsoever to do with the subject of the post. It is not a post on general politics.
OK,
You want to hear about General Politics? I’ll tell you about General Politics.
Gaius, Are you going to post something on General Politics?
