Both sides screwed the pooch
Well, I;m not so sure about that. It has been said that Weiss will be testifying before Congress, after the Congress returns in early August from recess. Which means, Weiss can answer many of the questions asked of him by using the "I will not comment on particulars of an ongoing/open investigation." Seems kind of convenient that all this "blew up" just prior to his visit to Congress. Whatcha' think?
I think they intentionally put on their Dunce Caps for just this reason. Let's remember, these guys are top of the line litagators. They know the law. So why such a dumb ameteur move? Dumb like Foxes, I say.
HOPE IS MOTIVATION; REALITY IS PROFIT
