And by the way: a long time ago, I called into cspan when Senator Allard was the guest. I specifically asked him about the Rocky memo and asked if any investigation was underway regarding its contents. Senator Allard said that the memo had been referred to the Senate Ethics committee (yes, I know, big whup). However, perhaps the Ethics committee then referred it on to DOJ and there is a continuing investigation underway regarding its contents.
Isn't it a bit curious considering the report that Rockefeller was in fact NOT alone why he would use specifically the words "by myself"? No one ever came forth and said well now Jay I, or so and so was actually with you on this trip.
