Is the FBI in on it too?
Hmmm ...

The FBI this morning raided the office of the chief technology officer for Washington, DC, who, until a few weeks ago, was Vivek Kundra, since appointed by President Obama to the newly created position of federal chief information officer. But so far it looks like Kundra is not the focus of the raid. Another employee has been arrested in the office as part of a federal bribery sting.

Why such a public display? Why are they trying to make this appointment look tainted?

1. I was thinking the same thing. Asked myself if the Administration
had replaced the FBI chief yet (Muller)....and if it hadn't, how hard would be it be to do so now that the FBI is "investigating" something that might look "troublesome" for the administration?

It smells stinky.

3. Thanks, I saw it but really
couldn't tell too much that was going on except suits went in and came out with suitcases, presumably full of docs.

4. They're grasping at straws trying to link President Obama to
any and everything. Blago and Roland wouldn't stick so I'm sure they will look for an opportunity with this issue.
