William “Cold-Cash” Jefferson was sentenced today to 13 years in jail for corruption. Jefferson’s sentence was the harshest ever handed out to a former lawmaker.
Here’s a great 2006 campaign ad by candidate William Jefferson:
“I have never taken a bribe from anyone.”
Of course, he was lying:
Jefferson was found guilty of 11 of 16 corruption charges in August by a federal jury.

A case that was, quite frankly, open and shut from start to finish….and the investigation was intentionally dragged out for many long months, so that Jefferson could continue to cast his automatic party-line vote for every Democratic cause and pork barrel project that came to the floor. Jefferson is a perfect example of a criminal in congress, pampered by party leadership and totally ignored by nearly everyone around him. Lord only knows how many MORE illegal cases he’s been directly involved in during his long political career.
Oddly, he was acquitted of the count for which he’s most famous – the 90 grand in the freezer.
He’ll serve about three years and then enjoy an early release, or be pardoned by the fraud in the White House at his next opportunity.

This is a clear case of RACISIM against my good friend William Jefferson. Of course he is at the top of my party and pardon list. And, yes, he will continue to get is government money. The taxpayers sukk.
By the way, I am a student of history. Muslims invented the pen and printing press and everything else. The Japanese and Chinese did not invent anything. American’s are worse. They suck. So, I plan to bring Khalid Sheikh Mohammed to the US for trial. We know he deserves the best lawyers the ACLU can give. This should provide an opportunity to look into the military’s surveillance activities and prove they sukk. It will also will enrich the ACLU and the MSM. They will then donate to my up comming campaign.
Now, my Jumbo Jet is headed for Japan where I can apologize to them for America’s cowboy World War II humiliation aboard the USS Missouri . America sucks and so do its servicemen. Good day.

Fairly boggles the mind, doesn’t it?

What boggles my mind is how long Mr. Jefferson was “protected” by Nancy P.
Nice if she was next to the hoosegow. Then Murtha. Then … and on and on …

He is not likely to spend much time at all in jail, and if he does it’ll be in some minimum security country club type on our dime. Bastard. Democrat Bastard. Lying Democrat Bastard.

And yet, with everything that was known about this, the Dems NEVER tried to oust him for it. The Party for the Morally Challenged.
