I haven’t heard any of you wise froggers speculate about what is going on with the Jefferson congressional office raid. Maybe I missed it. But then I woke up this am to see this article in the WaPo saying that Gonzales, McNulty and Mueller are threatening to resign if the documents the FBI found are returned.
I don’t know what to make of this. It sounds like a big deal – but what’s going on? What I get is that congresscritters, Republicans and Democrats alike, are mad that the FBI raided Jefferson’s office and see it as a breakdown of the separation of powers. But with all of them fighting for their lives in various courts around the country – do they have a leg to stand on?
But then, for the Attorney General and FBI Director to threaten to resign over this… I begin to wonder what’s up. Maybe its just chatter, but this takes it to another level it seems to me. My tin foil hat has always picked up signals that sound like the Executive Branch has info on congresscritters that keeps them in line. And this story has the signals screaming. But then, maybe its just the hat that needs adjusting. I know its Saturday morning and folks are out having a real life, but can someone out there shed some light?
