Frustrated at the obstacles confronting his investigation of "Spygate," Sen. Arlen Specter accused the New England Patriots of "stonewalling" on Friday and suggested the NFL might never get around to questioning key witness Matt Walsh, a former Patriots video assistant.
Specter's comments are in stark contrast to remarks on Wednesday from NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, who told reporters that the NFL was moving toward an agreement that would allow Walsh to tell what he knows about the Patriots' spying practices without fear of being sued.

I’m kind of tied up right now, but I’ll post more later tonight. Good stuff you’re posting, though.
No problem Richard. I look forward to reading your response.
It’ll probably be tomorrow before I can respond.
But the New Conservatism doesn't care about laws, haven't you heard?

I think a nightly or weekly news type show would have a field day and great rating if they did an eye-opening expose on what Congress does, and doesn’t do, with the People’s time and money.
I’d love to see a “this week, Congress failed to vote on x-number nominations to such-and-such, spent 50 millions of your dollars on name-your-pork-product, etc etc”.
Most people just are not aware of just exactly what congress is doing (and not doing).
It would need to be presented in a fun interesting way since after a while it would be so depressing no one would watch.
for all we know, Goodell doesn’t want people to really understand what the Pats did....OTOH....maybe its deeper than we think....maybe a real investigation by non-nfl personal would show fixing the games...ala the Stealers over the Seahawks...
Thank you. I knew someone would have an answer for me. Now that I know he's got a legitimate say in this business, I am happy that he's wasting his time with this crap instead of working hard screwing up the country any worse than he's already done.
