Hastert, Justice Dept. Dispute Inquiry Story


By Howard Kurtz
Washington Post Staff Writer
Friday, May 26, 2006; Page A06

ABC News says federal investigators have put House Speaker J. Dennis Hastert (R-Ill.) "in the mix" of their corruption probe centering on convicted former lobbyist Jack Abramoff.

Deputy Attorney General Paul J. McNulty says the ABC report involving Hastert -- even the "in the mix" language -- is "untrue."

On "World News Tonight" Wednesday, Brian Ross, ABC's chief investigative correspondent, said the bribery probe "now includes" Hastert but cautioned that the investigation is "clearly at the very beginning. The allegations could well prove unfounded." George Stephanopoulos, the network's chief Washington correspondent, called the implications "potentially seismic."


Get it right Brian
Cuz you're wrong!!!


:evilgrin:I can say all this since I never make mistakes, unless I do but that's not of your business:evilgrin:

...and in other news today, more were injured and killed in Iraq and other corners of the world for absolutely no good reason, the global warming picture is imiproving, and the damn voting machines don't work (read, will help Republicans again).

I'm a camera phobe (long crazy tale) having nothing whatsoever to do with my appearance.

Voiceovers only so it'll have to be a cartoon. Okay? I've always longed to be animated.

on edit-to quote our illustriously perfect SOS "there will always be tactical mistakes."

3. Howie Kurtz is Seemingly Every "Damn" Where & He's Always WRONG :P
He's the most-est BushBot Media Whore. In fact, Kurtz is so shameless in his kissing Dear Leader's ass, he doesn't even veil his LOVE of all things within Corporate America and The Executive Branch. He's vile with his arrogance, overt prejudices and mind-numbing Rove-Co spin. :puke:

7. It's saying things like that in letters to the WaPost Ombudsman
that's got the black helicopters following me...well, it's either black helicopters of very, very large birds. I'm not sure which.
:sarcasm:
But I think all reporters have to get it 100% right all the time!

I think we should have days of endless debate on Mr. Smartie reporter Brian Ross!

16. the Media's position has become "Don't ask, don't tell" unless a Pubbie
denies a story, then immediately attack the messenger.

13. Why wouldn't the investigation include Hastert?
Does it make any sense that a probe into the system of corruption set up by the Majority Leader (Delay) and a big time Republican lobbyist (Abramoff) would NOT include, at least look into, the Republican Speaker of the House?

Does it make any sense not to look into whether or not he was involved or if any of the money got to him, his PAC, or to him through other PACs?

The answer is clearly NO. Of course they are looking into him. The DoJ either lied yesterday OR they aren't doing what could reasonably called a full investigation.

Please tell me I am not the only person who sees this.
