Egglestone was a key player in the Clinton White House, helping to defend both Bill and Hillary in multiple scandal investigations and two independent counsel investigations, including Bubba's lying under oath about his relationship with Monica.

If you're interested, the link to the Politico story announcing the appointment, and detailing Eggleston's background, is here

This is what Eggleston does..and he's very, very good at it.

There's only one reason for the Obama administration to be bringing Eggleston back into the White House..they're worried, nervous, and very likely, there's much more bad news to come out..

We missed it, and we should have picked up on it..

Meh. I don’t agree. I may be one of the few on the Right that doesn’t see the new emails as meaning a whole lot. There are other issues that Issa screwed up, but these emails (speaking as a former Prosecutor) just aren’t a smoking gun for me. Sadly, I see this as no more than a very loud tempest in a teapot.

whatever is to come from the WH is not going to be good. Look Odumbo strived to inflate the numbers on OdumboCare and tried to have Boehner do an end around the illegal immigrantion. What do you expect for a fraud and a cheat!

I know it caught my interest. Egglestone was probably making a lot of money at that top tier law firm. Why would he want to go to work for the WH?

With the number of crisis on the horizon, it’s no wonder a single development was missed. This new counsel is much older than he was when he was in his prime. This could be a strategic blunder by playing today using yesterday’s rules.

I’ve seen this happen, lawyers can’t keep their energy forever.

Good catch.

The problem is this regime plays hardball while Boehner can’t even find the playing field. He doesn’t know how to go above the press with a coherent message, or stay on offense. Gowdy needs to surround himself with pros and take it step by step.

there was a good deal of talk about his new employment...

the details of the Regimes NEED for cover were not 100% clear at that time.

The heat is ON!

Actually, Judicial Watch received the email among other docs 2 weeks prior to them being publicly released, which means Obama already knew a week prior to hiring Egglstone in would come into the public domain.

John Kerry is in hot water for having disobeyed the subpoena issued last year.

I don't agree it was missed. I remember a thread a couple of weeks ago where it was mentioned that Obama brought in a heavy hitting criminal attorney as White House counsel.

Looks like Eggleston's first move has been to get the WH people all on the same page as far as saying that the talking points were about general protests, not Benghazi in in particular.

Well, that didn't work so well and the strategy to get Tommy on FOX also has backfired. Eggleston's not off to a good start.

NWO will try to remove Hussein from office b/c of ‘some emails,’ to preclude Hussein getting removed (and sent to the firing squad) because he has ZERO FORMS OF I.D. AND ISN’T AN AMERICAN.

I thought the same thing—but I was linking it to the IRS scandal and Lois Lerner contempt of Congress citation along with the move to set up a special counsel.

Could be that the storm clouds of a lot of “phony” scandals are looming over the WH

OHYes, there will be more coming. The email is just the excuse to open the closet door. All sorts of skeletons can start to fall out.

Lying and cover up are impeachable offenses when attached to an intentional policy failure that led an unarmed US ambassador and three soldiers to hopelessly hold off a mortar ambush, in which they were blown apart or burned.

Wait until they find out there was gun running involved in the charade to normalize relations in Benghazi, where normal was deadly. It’s coming.

Besides, it’s election time and Boehner has officially opened the books and fired the gun at the starting line, for baiting the voters and getting out red meat, now, for the base.
