Former congressman who hid cash in freezer gets 13 years

Aw, he pulled himself up out of poverty did he - well so did a lot of hard working individuals and they didn't go on to criminally reap nearly a half a million dollars.
And now he acknowledges a level of responsibility for his conduct, what the hell does that mean. He should hang his head in shame before his 5 daughters. My money says the wife knew about it and enjoyed the life style. If there was a package of pie crusts in my freezer and I didn't put it there - well I'm just sayin'

Just another slime ball.

Democrats. How low can you go.

13 yrs is really short. he should pay the money back and not keep a cent of it.

Another jewel..... http://cbs4.com/local/michelle.spence.jones.2...

Charlie Rangel next.

He's going to be put on ice for hiding cash in the freezer?

If he were a Republican, the headline would have blared: "Fromer Republican congressman who hid cash in freezer gets 13 years."

The thing that gets me is, he was reelected.

You're right, that's exactly how it would have played out.

When can we expect to see Pelosi and Reid in handcuffs? Her sweetheart deals to give her tuna hubby some protections and Reids land deals in Nevada. Crooks.......

Dead on! Could not agree more!!!!

They lie cheat and steal - but it's okay.
They aren't Republicans.. you know, the evil people who voted for freedom on the slaves, women's rights and most other liberties that the "good" DemocRATs voted against.
Wake up people!
The DemocRATS are the enemy of the US!!
Vote them out!
Get rid of them!

All you need to do is capitolize the right letters and their true nature comes out.
DemocRAT is spelled correctly.
They are filth.
Do not associate yourself with them.

I am a registered Republican but I am willing to vote for the best candidate regardless of Party. In 36 years of voting I have never voted for a demorat. That could change but I do not see it happening soon.

Former Democratic Louisiana Congressman William "freezer burn" Jefferson gets tossed into the can.

How can that be ??? I mean democrats NEVER do anything wrong ...

I can't wait for people to find out the deal Republicans have made with BIG insurance companies to fatten their pockets on the backs of hard working Americans that can no longer afford health insurance. But, if you don't stand for something, you'll fall for ANYTHING!!!!!!!!!
