...behavior. "I wish I could say this is the last one, but I fear it isn't," Acosta said. The FBI set up a full-time corruption squad in West Palm Beach in 2007, and Acosta announced on Friday that the U.S. Attorney's Office recently bought an extra floor of space in the building it is housed in.

"If we heap too much on top of the package, it will then take us deeply into debt," she warned in a speech on the House floor on Jan. 29, 2008. But now, as Congress gears up to craft a mammoth stimulus package that will dwarf last year's $170 billion bill, those requirements don't seem to be all that binding. (See a bailout report card...
