You know, I am really big on telling the truth. I have worked on a number of testimony to Congress for senior officials, and spent hours trying to get the wording just right (yes, all the testimony is prescripted and provided to Congress ahead of time) so as not to admit to a problem. And 9 times out of 10, it just gets more and more complicated, the more one tries to evade the truth. Clearly the IT people are trying to avoid something - and perhaps they fear the wrath of HRC more than they fear the wrath of Congress. Clearly they did something that they knew was wrong, but did it anyway. So now they will hide behind the 5th so as not to ruin HRC's chances of becoming the President. I think this is just further evidence of the ethical decay that is Washington these days. They may end up finding out that S**t rolls downhill when the truth comes out, as Ollie North found out.
