Yesterday we reported on a Libya reception at the Willard Hotel Wednesday, and wondered who from the U.S. government might dare show up in the wake of the Al-Megrahi controversy. POLITICO's Ken Vogel poked around, and discovered that not everybody in the U.S. government wants to pile on Libya. Here's his report:

Not for Rep. Solomon Ortiz (D-Texas) the Libya-bashing that followed Scotland’s release of Abdel Baset al-Megrahi, the terrorist convicted of the Lockerbie bombing, and the hero’s welcome he received when he returned to Libya.

We know that the people on that plane were conscious and aware of what was happening to them in the minute or so that it took them to hit the water. Think about that.

It would not surprise me AT ALL if this Ortiz creature is getting some sort of compensation from the Libyan government.

I live in the adjacent district. He and the rest of the scumbags, who represent South Texas, need to go. They only look out for their self interests. The primary reason they get away with this is because most voters in South Texas pull the lever for anyone whose name has a D next to it.

Are we surprised? not you nor I. These stinking crooks need to have their Swiss Bank accounts stripped.


United States Rep. Curt Weldon (R, PA) shakes hands with Libyan leader Col. Muammar Gadhafi after their meeting in Sirte, Libya March 3, 2004. The Libyan leader said that Libya has turned the page on terror and weapons of mass destruction and seeks better relations with the United States. Other U.S. Congressman L-R: Rep. Sylvestre Reyes (D,TX), Weldon, Gadhafi, Rep. Nick Smith (R, MI), Rep. Solomon Ortiz (D, TX).

Wonder who leaked this letter?

Surely Solomon didn’t have this on his website!

It’s linked to the article. All I did was to take the PDF save it to TIFF and merge the two pages side by side into one TIFF. Then I posted the resulting file on tinypic.com.
