I do not agree with the way Bob Mueller has done things in the past. If Bob Mueller had no control over the matters that led to 9/11/01, then Bob Mueller should still come forward and tell COngress what he knows went wrong (even if it means telling anything relevant about Ashcroft, the FBI, the CIA or even Bush and Clinton so the problems can be corrected quickly before we have another terror attack.
Mueller should put the welfare of the country ahead of his personal career, ahead of the FBI, the CIA and Bush and CLinton.
If Bob Mueller is tough as nails as you say he is (and as you say you are), does he have the moral courage to now do the right thing and see it through for the good of the country? I pray that he will.
But the last prominent man in government I heard who boasted he was tough as nails was "Tough Tony Lake", the National Security advisor under Clinton. Anthony Lake may have been tough but Congress was not convinced he was moral enough to be confirmed as DCIA. And Lake is suspeced of aiding the wrong Islamic types as well as the wrong Chinese.
Men like Mueller can be forgiven if they repent and make amends. But if they continue to cover even for things they did not do but know about, they will get caught up in the web of deceit and go down hard. He can chose to either be a goat or a hero. The chioce is really simple if he really believes that any wrong doers will not get away with it in the end.
God sees and knows everything from Heaven. He is forgiving for the humble but hard on the arrogant and haughty. God abhors perjury but rewards and forgives a contrite heart.
