Now the AGs try to cover their political butt by placing blame-- the old "Not MEEEeeee!" WASHINGTON (AP) -- U.S. District Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson in Washington is expected to rule on the Microsoft antitrust suit after mediation between government lawyers and the computer giant broke down this weekend. Describing the negotiations as ``very complex,' Iowa Attorney General Thomas Miller said ``many factors' led to the breakdown but ``the position of the states was not the cause of the failure.' Sources said government lawyers no longer were insisting on a breakup, but that Microsoft refused to accept proposals submitted by the Justice Department and 19 states who sued the company.
