Breaking: Rep. Harman in Quid-Pro-Quo w/Bush DOJ & AIPAC

Apparently Rep. Harman was involved in a wiretap scandal and promised to lobby the justice department in regards to two individuals from AIPAC if they would lobby Nancy Pelosi to place Rep. Harman as the head of House Intelligence Committee.

While the information is mostly from 2006, what is new, per CQ Politics is that Rep. Harman's investigation was not dropped due to "lack of evidence" but merely because Alberto Gonzales wanted her to intervene on the Warrantless Wiretapping scandal that was brewing. This explains why she and democrats in general, did not act in the face of the allegations that came out of the NYTimes regarding that program.

Further, this also explains why Rep. Harman did not get a job with the Obama administration in the CIA or elsewhere.

According to two officials privy to the events, Gonzales said he "needed Jane" to help support the administration’s warrantless wiretapping program, which was about to be exposed by the New York Times

Further, what's more interesting is that Harman helped HOLD BACK THE STORY ON THE EVE OF THE 2004 ELECTIONS. (Personally, I think this could have helped Kerry win in 2004)
