Here's a nice video which gives you a nice "compare and contrast" of the he said/they said between newly minted PA Democrat Senate nominee Joe Sestak and Team Obama.
Sestak of course has said many times that they offered him a federal government job (Secretary of the Navy) in exchange for not running against party jumper (and former King of RINOs) Arlen Specter. And, of course, the White House has denied it...but not very convincingly.
Check out the video below (or click here).
With as many times as Sestak has gone on the record claiming that they DID offer him a job, I don't see how this thing ends well for anyone. Either Sestak and Team Obama get their story straight and Sestak suddenly claims he "misspoke" or just wasn't clear in how he characterized the conversations, or someone on Team Obama gets thrown under the bus.
In the first option, Sestak comes off looking like a complete idiot, not to mention will then have a serious cloud over just how trustworthy he is. In the second option, there's really no telling how high things could go. If someone gets sacrificed, one would assume that THEY would have been offered something to take one for the team, so to speak, (another bribe in a chain of bribes?).
In other words, this is going to be REALLY messy before it's over, which, I suspect, is why after all this time the White House still hasn't put this to bed. It's because they can't. And they're counting their lucky stars that the Republicans in Congress don't have a majority in either chamber, and thus subpoena power. read more »
