Democratic Congresswoman Jane Harmon is journalistically accused of alleging she would go to bat legally for the two. Even if Justice’s decision to drop the charges, should it do that, is unconnected with l’affaire Harmon, it’s bad, bad timing anyway. Not just domestically, but abroad.
The story doesn’t directly say why charges might be dropped, but leaves a huge hint about halfway down the first page:
Defense lawyers recently again subpoenaed a number of prominent former government officials who are expected to testify for the defense. They include former secretary of state Condoleezza Rice, former national security adviser Stephen J. Hadley and former high-level Defense Department officials Paul D. Wolfowitz and Douglas J. Feith. Sources said defense lawyers recently interviewed several of these former officials.
It’s called “presidentialism.” The decision to drop this baby isn’t even AG Eric Holder’s alone to make.
