Why not a special oversight panel re: Rove to consolidate all the inquires?

[Phoebe Loosinhouse]

seems obvious:

Hatch act
Obstruction of justice
missing emails and violation of Presidential Records Act
interactions/oversight/communications with electronic voting companies
Plame outing - "fair game", treason
Attorneygate
Abramhoff

I'm sure one could list others. Why go at it piecemeal?

1. What do you think this Bloch thing is all about

Instead of Democratic investigations or special prosecutors, we get Rove's special guy Bloch.

Bloch will look into everything and get back to us.

[Phoebe Loosinhouse]

2. That's exactly what I am getting at

This needs to be taken to a higher, more neutral level. I don't think anyone has confidence in a Bloch investigation.

It's like Harriet Miers vetting herself. Or like Dick Cheney heading the VP search.

I think people need to call b!@ls!@t early on.

3. I wouldn't worry about Bloc. It's just one more "investigation" if you

want to call it that, for Rover to have to respond to.

4. Why not go at it piecemeal? I support the piecemeal approach. (nt)

5. I think it's called 'Congress'..

the special 'over-sight' panel. Why can't Mr. Bloch just keep doing what he's been doing...nothing.
