...promised, somewhat half-heartedly, to take "appropriate steps." (White House Aide Sidney Blumenthal, who has been known to retail mud to Clinton-friendly reporters, can probably expect a cursory visit from the G-men.) But the outrage on both sides of the House is genuine. "This is a way to push back against the Hyde story, which infuriates all of the leadership," says TIME congressional correspondent John Dickerson. Republicans, however, could profit from the example of Massachusetts Democrat Barney Frank, who when faced with a sex scandal of his own -- gay-themed, no less -- just took his beating and moved...

Doesn't anybody have any loyalty anymore? Not only did those IRS agents squeal on their bosses, they couldn't even do it without gray screens and frosted-flake voices. And while the G-men were singing like canaries, the senators were having a, er, whale of a time overturning some other sacred cows, like the FDA and the McCain-Feingold bill.

...possible laundered money because they were mentioned more than once in the intercepts. The FBI didn't have much more--no names of donors, no conduits for the money, no dates. It was just giving the White House a heads-up. Be careful with the information, said the two G-men. National Security Council aides Rand Beers and Ed Appel were too careful. They never sent word up the line to their boss, Anthony Lake, much less to the President, that potential donors with China connections should now merit far more scrutiny...
