That brings me back to my original point that Congressmen/Senators would face even more stringent investigations than I, simply because of the level of access afforded them.

I heard or read a long time ago that Congressmen and Senators only get a Secret Clearance initially. Of course that would have to be upgraded if they were on a committee that handled more sensitive information. If anyone has direct knowledge it might be helpful to debunk this urban myth.

Like you I am certain that they are investigated. Remember Hillary's bouncer, Craige Livingstone and "Filegate?" Those were the files that Hillary illegally obtained, FBI background investigation files.

Like you I don'teadily have available evidence to refute this allegation. However; I find it more than hard to believe that our government would grant our representatives the sacred right to cast a vote to send their citizens off to war without granting them the access to prove the necessity of said aggression. That's why on this I'll have to call a big ole American BS!.
