Poll: Americans Side With Law Enforcement

This is from ABCNews concerning the FBI raiding Democrat Representative William Jefferson's office, and the consequent rift with Congress over the matter:

In the rift between Congress and the Justice Department, Americans side overwhelmingly with law enforcement: Regardless of precedent and the separation of powers, 86 percent say the FBI should be allowed to search a Congress member's office if it has a warrant.

I hotly agree. The legislature has been too big for its britches for a while now, interfering in the war effort and with their tedious and useless investigations, from Katrina to Pre-war Intelligence. They should be taken down a notch.
