Its all about Felt's family wanting to cash in big. Buchanan reportedly called him a traitor and Chris Matthews had another hissy fit. One reported described Felt as a disgruntled employee wanting revenge for not being appointed head of the FBI, and of course a book deal and money. We should be thankful Felt was not promoted.

Some see this as another black eye for the FBI. There was the Katrina Leung/James J. Smith affair and treason case; the Weaver sniper; former agent Justin Haberski; and Robert Hanssen, who after being found guilty should have been given the death penalty but instead was awarded a pension.

The FBI needs far more extensive checks of the character of its employees. As for Felt, according to one report, our government announced - even before all evidence was in - that no charges will be filed against him.

I believe this was proven false.

Hissy fits are a daily affair for 'Spitball' Matthews. Btw, did you ever noticed how close together his eyes are getting? Rats have eyes like that. His eyes will be one if he goes about another decade or so lying for the socialist Dems.
