generally you have to say I recomend this action based on exhibit x. Do you not? Would that not have been the first question asked?

I mean I agree the words could have come out of his mouth but then what? If his goal was to go after the clintons and he pulled a stunt like recommending a case against her he would have been uncovered pretty quickly no?

I mean if he wanted to end his career in disgrace sure he could have but he would have to be an idiot to do so based on what he had.
