Wonder what the thugs in the White House have on Sestak to get him to go along with the phony coverup story.
I heard Judge Napolitano and Dick Morris saying that getting Congress to start an investigation would be impossible, however, since this Bribe impacted aPennsylvania election, the Attorney General of Pennsylvania can start looking into this on behalf of the Pennsylvania voters. They said the AG in PA is a republican.
Bingo - Sestak’s latest altered “story” does not fit with what the White House finally released.
As some have speculated it appears that he may have indeed spoken with Clinton about an “appointment” -
...but nothing in the White House lawyer’s 1.5 page document “precludes” there having been other direct contacts made - with precise “job offers” -
But since the job was allegedly offered in exchange for getting out of the Senate race ... is the fact that he stayed in the race and no job was forthcoming some proof of the quid pro quo?
.
“SESTAK: I don’t really care what Dick Durbin says....he’s the Establishment of Washington, D.C......”
Freind should have nailed him at that point. Told Sestek that he’s now officially proven HE IS PART OF THE ESTABLISHMENT by stonewalling and protecting the admn instead of coming clean. Dropped the ball on that one!
From another Freeper yesterday:
“Whoever, directly or indirectly, promises any employment, position, compensation, contract, appointment, or other benefit, provided for or made possible in whole or in part by any Act of Congress, or any special consideration in obtaining any such benefit, to any person as consideration, favor, or reward for any political activity or for the support of or opposition to any candidate or any political party in connection with any general or special election to any political office, or in connection with any primary election or political convention or caucus held to select candidates for any political office, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both.
18 USC 211 - Acceptance or solicitation to obtain appointive public office”
The big question here should be what does Clinton get out of this?
Besides, you can tell Bill is lying: his lips are moving.
Now, the original crime may, or may not, meet the threshold of impeachment...but there's a high probability the obstruction and conspiracy after the fact DO.
A $500-an-hour-ho for two hours every day until November 2012.
Hold on there. Coming up with a joint BS Story, or outright LIE for the press is not and has never been a crime.
It's only what Sestak says to the FBI or under oath or before a Grand Jury that could put him at legal risk.
Even if he PLANS to lie in an official arena...and then actually tells the truth, he's not guilty of a crime of any sort.
However, if he encourages somebody else to lie under oath and conspires with them/colludes...he's definitely guilty of a crime.
I would guess with all of his health problems, the most Bill can do is watch....
They can tell whatever story they want to the media. Put them all under oath and see what happens....
Precisely.
“Official” story released yesterday is probably true. Sestak’s verification of it is likely honest. But it’s not the whole story.
Clinton’s approach didn’t work, so they offered him more, probably much more. That’s the part they’re leaving out.
“Sestak is lying by not telling the whole truth.”
He is with his acting coach right now. Looking in a mirror so he knows how to appear when lying his teeth out!
Conspiracy, too.
That’s just perfect. Logan looks like Nixon, but acts just like BJ. He sure helped this season (sarc), just the same way I think BJ will help obama...it won’t end well.
“Conspiracy, too.”
Yep. I love it when I hear those words “conspiracy to commit....” That usually ratches up the prison time by 3 or 4 fold than if you had done it by yourself. At the very least Rahm and Clinton are co-conspirators hopefully Obama too.
