Filthy Tricks

“What I find ironic, if there is an investigation, is that no one would tell me until three weeks before the election,” Weldon said at an appearance in Media. “This incident was 2 1/2 years ago.”

Why is my Congressman’s daughter being subjected to an FBI search right now – three weeks before a very tight election race?

I’m purely speculating here, but he has pissed a lot of bureaucrats off in the intelligence community for the spectacular incompentence before and after 9/11. There is this:

Weldon, regarded by some as a foreign policy expert, has clashed at times with the Bush administration. In the last year, he has repeatedly said a secret military unit called “Able Danger” used data- mining to link four Sept. 11 hijackers to al-Qaida more than a year before the attacks. A Pentagon report rejected the idea.

I’m the last person to don the ol’ tinfoil… but even in this particular political season, where nastiness has attained new heights, I suspect he might be getting some payback.

Maybe Joe Sestak has some favors owed to him.

Hopefully, I’ll have a chance to ask him in person at the rally next week.

    Sounds political to me. Sitting on it for two years and then conducting a high profile raid a few weeks before a big election.

    If I were there..I’d vote for him Cranky. And if I were dead and a Democrat I could vote twice.
