Think you have a say so in America?
you don't, not unless you have this kind of money: "$2.3 million in campaign contributions Stanford gave members of Congress, including Sessions."

"U.S. Rep. Pete Sessions hasn't responded to a report that he sent a supportive e-mail to banker R. Allen Stanford hours after Stanford was charged with swindling $7 billion from investors."

""I love you and believe in you," said the e-mail reportedly sent by Sessions, a Dallas Republican. "If you want my ear/voice – e-mail," said the message signed "Pete."
