If Weightman was in fact trying to fix the problems and was kicked out, he's got nothing to lose by pointing fingers at Bushco and the Pentagon and Kiley.

7. Why are they bothering? He'll disregard the subpoena, or

refuse to answer questions, or just plain LIE. And then he'll get a Presidential Medal of Freedom.
