Who's Afraid of the White House Attorneys Connection?

Politics – If the White House did nothing improper in the controversial firing of eight U.S. Attorneys last year, why would top officials in the Justice Department, perhaps including Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, have tried to conceal its role in the dismissals?

Where there is smoke there is fire.

Sometimes these old adages are true.

Where there is concealment, something is certainly concealed.

Thanks Aidenag, good article.

It is true, if people who have nothing to hide, their response time would be swift & everything will be above board! There is more to this than we know! (sooner or later the facts will be known!) I remember the Nixon/Agnew history.

Since this has been this administrations style, acting just like teenagers, if parents don't ask, the teen won't tell each detail and the parent believes the teen till the teen gets caught. It is the Half truths or the lying by omission that concern me the most and is the most irritating.

Thank you, Aidenag, for this posting.

Certainly, if there was no wrong doing, the easiest, fastest way to make all this go away would be to just come clean. Give investigators free access to any and all records and then be done with it.

And then there is the portion of the Attorney Generals office that oversees elections. To make sure they are fair and that all qualified citizens have access to voting. But, that has been subverted by this attorney general as well according to a recent report on Keith Olbermann.

We need impeachment of this entire administration. ASAP!

I would have to say that if you state " I can't recall " some 72 times in your testimony before congress, how can you then say that you have nothing to hide?

If nothing wrong occurred, why would a senior official invoke her 5th amendment rights? Isn't that intended to avoid incriminating one-self? There has to be a crime before you can incriminate yourself for having committed or participated in it.
