yes, but if you were Fitzgerald, and you were truly acting independently, and you heard this statement - wouldn't you go in the other direction? I would, if I were truly independent and I was considering indicting someone over what is essentially a perjury trap - and I heard the Dems already on the warpath to impeachment - I would ask myself "am I doing the right thing opening this can of worms"?
Therein lies the rub....
IS he acting independently...or does he have a "sugardaddy" somewhere???
