Hugh Hewitt - IT'S NOT A WALL: I DIDN'T BUILD IT: AND BESIDES, YOU BUILT IT FIRST.



Jamie Gorelick has penned an op-ed for the Washington Post protesting her innocence of the charge that she built "the wall" between criminal investigations and terrorism surveillance. A quick summary: It's not a wall; I didn't build it; and besides, you built it first.

This new variation on the trial lawyers' creed of "It's not my dog; it didn't bite you; and besides, you kicked it first," would be amusing were the stakes not so high. That Gorelick had to write this piece is all the evidence that any fair-minded individual needs to conclude that she must resign the Commission immediately.

Gorelick may be telling the truth. She may be lying. But she cannot be the judge of the matter, nor one of ten judges. If she stays on the Commission, don't bother me with reports on what it concludes now or in the future. Can you say "cover-up?"
