The Sestak Dilemma

The normally left-leaning Los Angeles Times editorializes about the alleged White House job offer to Congressman Joe Sestak. The Times believes it needs to be investigated.

It is their reading of federal law that to offer a job to someone to get them to do, or not do, something political is a felony. So, either Dem senatorial candidate Sestak is lying or some Team Obama functionary is a felon.

If it is ever investigated, it will turn out it was all an unfortunate misunderstanding. That is, unless Obama decides it is expedient to throw yet another associate under the bus.

Meanwhile ABC News reports that all 7 Republican members of the Senate Judiciary Committee have asked Attorney General Holder to appoint a special Prosecutor to look into the Sestak job-offer matter. Anybody wanna bet he ignores them?
