Soon to be convicted Congressfelon William Jefferson (D-LA), go directly to Jail. Do not pass go. Do not collect your cushy congressional pension.

Former FEMA director Michael Brown testifying before a congressional committee:

"My biggest mistake was not recognizing by Saturday that Louisiana was dysfunctional," two days before the storm hit, Brown told the panel.

Enter our hero:

Brown's testimony drew a scathing response from Rep. William Jefferson (news, bio, voting record), D-La.

"I find it absolutely stunning that this hearing would start out with you, Mr. Brown, laying the blame for FEMA's failings at the feet of the governor of Louisiana and the Mayor of New Orleans."

Representative Jefferson was ferried to the hearing by a black DEA helicopter.
