Here's the transcript on that. Why his fellows in Congress don't physically pick this guy up and throw him out the door of the Capital is beyond me. This guy is stinking up the entire Federal Government. How can anyone respect a body that would accept this ...... as a colleague.
CHUNG Uh … hours before police, DC police searched your apartment, you were seen throwing away a watch box. Um, in a dumpster. Why, why did you do that?
CONDIT Well, the watch box had nothing to do with Chandra Levy and the police. Know that. The fact of the matter…
CHUNG But were you trying to cover up a relationship with yet another woman?
CONDIT Let me finish this. Uh, the watch box had nothing to do with Chandra Levy. The watch box … uh … I, I … I did not take anything out of the apartment before or after the search. The watch box had nothing to do with Chandra Levy at all. It was … trash that I threw away.
CHUNG But why did you throw it away hours before the search?
CONDIT Well, the watch box, uh, I didn't take anything out of the … my apartment. The search within my apartment. Nothing came out of my apartment before the search or after the search.
CHUNG Are you saying the watch box was somewhere else?
CONDIT Yes.
CHUNG Other than your apartment?
CONDIT Yes.
CHUNG So where was it?
CONDIT It would be in my office.
CHUNG And so why did you throw it away?
CONDIT Well, because I was cleaning out my office to be very frankly with you.
CHUNG But why throw it in a dumpster uh, somewhere, instead of just throwing it in the trash can in your office?
CONDIT Well, the fact of the matter is the watch box had nothing to do with Chandra Levy. And the police department know this.
CHUNG Don't you think it's rather suspicious behavior though to throw a watch box in a Dumpster?
CONDIT Well, first of all, I did not throw it in a Dumpster. I threw it in a trash can on a street, understanding that the tabloids are going through every bit of my trash at my office, going through things in my office, trying to get things out of my office. It was trash. I threw it away.
CHUNG But … I mean, if, if there was nothing to it … so what if, if uh, the tabloids would find it? If there was nothing … who gave it to you?
CONDIT Well, there was nothing to it.
CHUNG Who gave it to you?
CONDIT It was a gift.
CHUNG From?
CONDIT It was a gift.
CHUNG A woman in the office who worked in your office?
CONDIT Years ago.
CHUNG And did you have a relationship with her?
CONDIT I did not.
CHUNG Um, tell me, have you made any attempts to silence anyone about any relationship you've had with a woman?
CONDIT I have not asked anyone to … be silent about anything. Matter of fact, I've … anyone who says that we tried to keep people from cooperating is just lying.
