Rahm Pins Sestak Bribe on Billy Bob

The White House finally formulated a strategy in case Congress appoints a special prosecutor to investigate Joe Sestak's claim that he was offered a job to stay out of the Senatorial primary race in PA - Bill Clinton did it. This was the case, according to President Obama’s chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel. Emanuel claims he used Clinton as an intermediary to see if Sestak would drop out of the primary if given a "prominent, but unpaid, advisory position." The White House argued that there was no impropriety in asking Clinton for a favor. The Justice Department is looking into whether the solicitation violated the Hatch Act, the act governing the political conduct of federal employees.

So much for cleaning up Washington.
