Remember one of the Clinton MOs was to accuse others of that which they did to be able to say "see everybody does it". The other was to get info out about others so they could say, "see these folks are just trying to get even". The last was to leak info and then claim it is old news when officially announced. The problem with that is they don't have as much access to inside scoop as they used to. That is why the Dems rant and rave for investigations. May be the reason behind a few of the Klayman suits.
Remember a few week ago on one of the talking head shows, a Republican member of the House Intellegence committee sat listening to one of the "what did they know and when did they know it rants." The Pubbie looked like the cat who had swallowed the canary. He only said, though, that "the truth" about the whole intellegence problems would come out soon.
In addition, as we have discussed, the SEC ramped up manpower 6 to 8 months ago. Bush's chief economic advisor indicated that the SEC hit the ground running with investigations as soon as Pitt was confirmed.
You are right. Something weird is going on, however, I don't think we have seen the reason behind it yet.
On Cavuto's show .. Gerphart was on and talking about how Pitt had to recuse himself 29 times because of conflict of interest ... and Neil mentioned how the statue of limitation for that is one year and that Pitt would be clear of any conflicts pretty soon and if given the full job he could go full steam ahead on these corporations
I can't help but think these corporations are the Saving's & Loan of the 90's
