More Interference by Justice? Bush Admin Short-Circuited Securities Investigation, Fired SEC Lawyer
Have you heard of the fired SEC attorney, who was investigating Bush supporter John Mack (Morgan Stanley, Pequot Capital)?

The fired SEC lawyer, Gary Aguirre, was looking into hedge fund Pequot Capital: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=sec+attorney+john+mack+gary+aguirre

FYI...

1. That the litany of obstruction is endless seems a no-brainer: everything is political, the punish-
and-reward cycle of crass mendacity and corruption is ever-present and never-ending.

3. How is it that we haven't heard of
"Now the Senate is investigating whether the S.E.C. prematurely halted its Pequot investigation because of outside political pressure." this from the MSM? Are they neglecting to report in an unbiased manner? :sarcasm:
K&R Thanks again for sharing your knowledge C G A :toast:

8. It is already in the San Diego Union-Tribune Columnists and WSJ article defending Bush on this is
already out there.

For the main stream media and a negative story on the GOP/Bush, this is almost as good as the coverage given Bush's AWOL status when the Boston Globe broke that story (repeating and extending it over 3 days).

I do not expect to hear anything on this in Sunday talk (must be because of that taping schedule - right?).

4. They think they can Play the "OHHHH THEY'RE PLAYING PARTISAN POLITICS" card
That line of crap is only going to remind everyone who is REALLY playing partisan politics.

This is NOT good for them. You can only get way with this type of behavior for soooo long before the tower crumbles to the ground.

7. The Public Integrity Section Vacancy...
... was finally filled last week: http://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/2007/03/16/rise-in-afghan-guerrilla-violence-expected/

Maybe now we'll see some movement.
