  54. Unfortunately, you may be right
  Ashcroft had plenty of time to go through and vet all the evidence, all the questionaires and coach all the witnesses. Anything incriminating like memos, emails etc. had plenty of time to be scrubbed and dissappeared or declared top secret nat'l security of the highest level.
  So, what we might have is a situation where they actually can appoint a straight up guy who will investigate thoroughly, but he'll have nothing to find and his case may consist of mere hearsay and "he said she said". IOW, the word of people in the admin. vs. the word of either people in the CIA or reporters. Unfortunately, that's not enough to prosecute anyone.
