White House Resident Bush has intervened directly in a tense constitutional fight between Congress and the Justice Department by ordering records seized from a congressional office sealed for 45 days. What the hell is THAT all about? He says "Our government has not faced such a dilemma in more than two centuries," in reference to the recent FBI search of the office of Representative William Jefferson, who has been accused of accepting bribes. "Yet after days of discussions, it is clear these differences will require more time to be worked out." Sounds more like someone's busy trying to do buy themselves 45 days worth of cleanup on a bribery trail that's liable to find its way, one of these days, right to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue...
