Wonder if the gov’t will delay the hearing now. It wouldn’t surprise me.

I think that’s a good possibility, Red. There’s been nothing in the news that actually says the charges were dropped because of the conduct of Pigott but it’s pretty evident to me that it had a part in it. I believe Sheldons appeal was successful.

I think it’s a big time slap down of Pigott and it wouldn’t surprise me to see him disappear from the upcoming cases. They also may postpone the cases again as you mention.

I can only wonder what kind of pressure is being applied from politicians who staked their careers on these men being railroaded.

Do they delay for another year in hopes that interest will fade away, risking that the investigative corruption - and their treasonous actions to demoralize the nation - are exposed a little too close to the 2008 elections?

Or do they push it through now, risking that the same outcome will enrage America at a time they claim to be divining American's overt desire to surrender to the same terrorists our guys were being shot at and blown up by?

Is the choice of Piggot to continue an indicator that he is Murtha's boy, maybe his only one, or is it simply a case that since he hasn't yet been charged with misconduct, he is the only one in the picture who gets to enjoy the old system of innocent until proven guilty?

I think alot of people are on the edge of their seats right about now.
