“Who the hell would ever want a public announcement of a law enforcement investigation to push a story into the background? LOL.”
Exactly! That’s one of the goofiest things Rush has ever said.
I’m not saying I buy it in this case...but one of the ways the Clintons dealt with scandals while he was President, was to use the release of information on one scandal to obscure conclusions on another scandal. This had the effect of having much of the public hear accusation after accusation without hearing conclusion or result, and deciding it was just noise.
