The Only Question I Would Have Had For Gonzo Was "Where Is The Paperwork"

[ThomWV]

Throughout all the testimony from all the players we've seen so far from the Justice Department not once has any of them produced any paper trail for any of their decisions. There are E-Mails aplenty from one underling to the next but you'd get the impression that at the top every decision was supported by hallway conversations or chats in the men's rooms. I worked in the Federal Government for decades and no one so much as sneezed without paperwork. All these meetings that no one can recall being at or making any decisions at - weren't there any minutes kept? How many meetings of any importance at all have you ever attended at which someone did not take minutes? Would not the hiring or firing for positions as powerful and politically important as federal prosecutors be accompanied by at least some little scrap that someone signed off on?

There simply has to be more than E-Mails; didn't Samson say something about an informal file he kept in his desk? Well? Let's see it!
