Laura Rozen asks a good question: If the GOP leadership on Capitol Hill is so worked up over the FBI raid on Rep. Jefferson's office, why the hell aren't congressional committees going into action threatening both Justice and the FBI with oversight hearings or introducing legislation cutting budgets, etc? Either they're not as concerned as they've said or they really don't have any idea how Congress works and what their role is in the whole scheme of things and thus don't know how to express Congressional perogatives anymore. After the past six years of much greater abuses of power by the executive branch its quite amazing to see Bill Frist and Denny Hastert so worked up over this.
