You say the report was well known. I don't know how you know that. All I know is when it made the public, when somebody took a secret document out of prosecutorial channels and released it to the press, I do not believe it was yet anywhere in the Pentagon.

The shiv from Rumsfeld.

He's not a man to be toyed with.

Hill is bad about broad generalizations like "everybody knows", "we all know", etc. It is her way of belittling people. Hope this time it bites her in her rather substantial bottom.

That is why they want him gone....they want someone they can make squirm!

Read between the lines, I read, "Hmm, now you gave me a pretty clear idea on who might have leaked the report. I will then make him/her sing like the Bronx Opera House. After that, the DOJ will open a criminal investigation into how you received and held stolen federal property and possibly intervened in a criminal matter. We'll be nice guys and not invoke Patriot, which this stupidity--if we've totally got our panties in knot over it--can be used to beat you with like a red-headed stepchild. You may want to consult your attorneys, Elenaor Roosevelt or whichever manifestation of Gaia you supposedly worshipped for guidance and help because the rules of the Senate may not protect you."
