“We have no reason to believe a person of Islamic faith had anything to do with this”..something along those lines Im sure.
Wasn’t Daschle another recipient?
““They say [the case is] active, and I hope it is,” Leahy said.””
That’s not exactly 100% reassuring.
““With the concurrence of [the Justice Department], the FBI briefed Senator Leahy on the Amerithrax investigation,” said special agent Richard Kolko in a Tuesday e-mail to Roll Call. “Senator Leahy was provided this brief due to his specific status as a victim in this case.””
Do we see here any actual quotes Grassley was really briefed? The language here is the same that was used to preclude briefing of Grassley and Holt etc.
Leahy was the addressee of one anthrax-tainted letter and Grassley has led the call for more FBI briefings.
There's your leak.....
I’m laughing right now just imagining the sort of fanciful yarns the FBI probably spun behind closed to Grassley and the poor doofus Leahy.
It's interesting that the briefing took place over a MONTH ago, but we're only learning about it now. I guess that shows that Senators can keep things secret if they want to -- at least for a month or so.
