And oversight committees are nothing more than political attack dogs -
used to chase red herrings and make headlines. They're always BS no

nor was Libby's - nor was <fill in the blank>. In place of substantive
ideals and goals, attack your enemy. Ms. Ralston is probably working
for some senator's friend's business now...
