Okay, then we have to get into the relative prominence and influence of the Veep -- and the use of no-bid contracts -- versus a single senator voting on projects that are subject to competitive bidding.

Well,gee.....what about "where there's smoke; there must be some fire?"

I've never said that. The quality and quantity of smoke is important.

Where was the investigation to take a little "look see??"

What would be the basis for the investigation? With Gonzales, you have a specific action to investigate -- the unusual firing of eight prosecutors, and the false and changing explanations that followed. With Feinstein, the only thing you've got is that she sat on the MilCon committee, and her husband owned two defense contractors. There's not a scrap of a suggestion that there was wrongdoing -- just an independent weekly saying it could be a conflict.

Well, I can't see a credible problem with the firings of 8 political appointees either. But we're sure getting a big TO DO over that!!

Opinions vary, of course. But I think that there's an objective difference between the two.
