THE ELECTED WHO SHOULD BE IN JAIL

(1) Ted Stevens - Republican Senator from Alaska - for making false statements on financial-disclosure forms about his relationship with Veco, an Alaskan oil company (7 counts).

STATUS - Convicted awaiting sentencing.

My Opinion - That's one down.

(2) William Jefferson - Democratic Congressman from Louisiana - at least seven cases in which he "sought things of value in return for his performance of official acts."Oh, and the $90,000 in cash that was hidden in his freezer had nothing to do with any of THAT.

STATUS - kicked out of Congress, hired by Department of Homeland Security.

My Opinion - Unbelievable. Jail.

(3) John Murtha - Republican Congressman from Pennsylvania - multiple counts of corruption, slandering 8 Marines in public (legal as long as he makes the statements in Congress, not when he does it outside), and just plain ole' being stupid - he called his own consituents racist and redneck.

STATUS - About to lose a reelection campaign. That should free up his time so that he can rot in a jail cell for a while.

My Opinion - Google "lunatic" and his name and picture come up. Jail.

(4) Tim Mahoney- Democratic Confressman from Florida - all kinds of sexual harassment of his staff and trying to force members of his staff to attend fundraisers and "tease" more money from them.

STATUS -Investigation underway, complete with tape recordings of everything.

My Opinion -New career - pimp? Jail.

(5) Robert Wexler - Democratic Congressman from Florida - doesn't live in Florida and doesn't maintain a legal residence there, thus perpetrating a fraud on not only his constituents, but also, the US Congress. The address he claims is owned by his in-laws and is in a 55-and-over retirement community. He is has three children making him ineligible to live there.

STATUS - After the truth came out, he leased an apartment in his district.

My Opinion - But what about the fraud? Jail.

(6) Gavin Newsom - Democratic Mayor of San Francisco - For declaring his city as a sanctuary for illegal aliens and refusing to assist (and opposing) federal agents from doing their jobs.

STATUS - Still running his city into the ground.

My Opinion - Clown. Jail.

(7) Antonio Villaraigosa (aka Tony Villar) - Democratic Mayor of Los Angeles - the list is long, but mostly for endorsing and continuing Special Order 40 - implemented by the LA City Council to prevent LAPD from obtaining immigration status from detained suspects in 1969. Also, for wasting LA taxpayer money traveling ALL OVER the world (why does a Mayor need to do that?)

STATUS - Still running his city into the ground. And marching WITH illegal alien protesters in the LA streets.

My Opinion - Clown. Jail.

(8) Barrack Obama - Democratic Senator from Illinois - for accepting and using illegal foreign campaign donations - around 200 million dollars worth.

STATUS - An FEC auditor has tried to have a formal investigation launched, but the analyst says his supervisors are unwilling to touch the case is because Justice Department or FBI involvement would be indicative of a criminal investigation, something the FEC would prefer not take place a month before the presidential election.

My Opinion - Uh, what do you mean "would prefer not take place a month before the presidential election"? That is EXACTLY when it needs to be done. Jail.

(9) Barney Frank - Democratic Congressman from Massachusetts - Lots, but we'll stick to leading the way and pushing for lower standards in lending to home buyers, and then arguing against investigations into the obvious problems that have now become catastrophic.

STATUS - Still on the loose and now wants to spend another 150 billion and has threatened Republicans that if they don't agree, he will propose an even bigger fiasco. Also wants to cut defense spending by 25%.

My Opinion - Can't get the cuffs on this guy fast enough. Jail.

(10) Maxine Waters - Democratic Congresswoman from California - Plenty of stuff, but specifically for blocking government oversight that could have prevented the current financial crisis, and lying about receiving $15,000 from Fannie Mae and Freddie mac lending institutions (just part of the $4.8 millionn Congress has received from them).

STATUS - Still on the loose.

My Opinion - Clown. Jail.
