^^^THIS! is what you bring?
A NEW charge can be filed if there is a reason, indeed. You cannot take a current law and suddenly wave your hand and make it a felony.
The laws that were cited in this thread are misdemeanors. Those laws will never be felonies no matter how much you rub your wishing pony.
If any reasonable people would like to discuss this, I would be glad to continue, but I'm through with the troll.
No, it is what you bring. Again you :failpail:
Two relevant points that often apply in politics:
"perception is everything"
"it ain't the misbehavior, its the cover-up"
Rahm and crew are as good at it gets. This has a potential to be an embarrassment that could only grow over time. Believe they already have Durbin out in front of this "demanding some answers" from Sestak. My guess is that the Administration will likely over-compensate to make sure this "scandal" doesn't get legs. Or "minimal legs" if it even gets off the ground.
No idea if an actual law has been broken. But the potential appearance of such occurring is all it should take to rally the WH troops. (And Sestak is very disposable... )

You can then link to articles about cases I have won, or you can go to the web pages for the Pennsylvania Superior Court and the Pennsylvania Supreme Court and type in my name and read the appeals I have won. I have never hidden my identity here, and am proud of my accomplishments and education.
Or you can believe the anonymous guy who, for all you know, is typing while sitting in an insane asylum somewhere.
Are you an "attorney" like your circle jerk partner, too?...or simply a lefty apologist?
Oh...let me guess!!!
Dispute my points, lefty.

You're kidding right?
Someone with that name, is indeed a lawyer in Monroe Twp, PA. Whether or not it's actually the person posting on this board, I don't know. If you want, I can PM you the info.
Well, you seem to be a PI lawyer.
And that's fine. What we're doing is basically speculating here. IF an impropriety was committed - we do not yet have the facts to support that. There's lots of supposition but neither party is providing details about what did or did not occur. So until a subpoena or testimony is provided under oath - we really can only speculate more. Politically - it really doesn't make a difference if this is a felony or a misdemeanor. It's all bad for both the WH and Sestak and it's a matter of damage control and information control.
Legally, if it's identified and verified through an investigation that an offer was indeed made, the legal fallout will be negligible, the political fallout could be massive. The worse someone can be charged with are multiple counts of violations --- which are identified as up to 1 year in jail, a fine, or both.
Now--- that's not to say an investigation could not uncover a larger conspiracy here - which may be a felony outside of sec. 211 and sec. 600. But that's supposition again and we'll need to wait (hopefully) for evidence to be provided by a (hopefully) prosecutor who will be assigned to this. I didn't look much but there's not much case law around Chapt 29, Sec. 600 --- most of it's local and State. I think the worst case scenario will be Sestak bails out and some low level falls on the sword for the White House --- or they continue to cover up and do not volunteer information until served with a subpoena.

utter incompetence is what fed this story from its inception
Gibbs: 'I'd refer you to the memo' | POLITICO 44
question tossed by white house press corps: have you kept us in the dark about this incident?
press secty gibbs: i can "understand" how you feel that way
question: why were you so quiet so long?
gibbs: "i'd have to ask counsel for a better answer"
question: the memo says multiple offers, june and july, was it clinton both times?
gibbs: "whatever's in the memo is accurate, i'll check"
question: isn't service on the intel advisory board forbidden for sitting house members?
gibbs: "i'd refer you to the memo"
gibbs: "it was an unpaid position and didn't constitute a lot of what you hear"
huh?
you cannot talk to the press corps like that
the sheer stupidity is trumped only by the arrogance
they'll take stupidity, they'll cover for you
but arrogance...
you don't talk to the new york times like that
the prez has lost the press, his coverage is universal catastrophic
he and his team are comprehensively incompetent, day after dismal day
this is not what you voted for
sorry
every headline is negative, every headline is huge
THE NEWS is just killing this guy
he's treated the press corps like crap
when's the last time you saw a positive story about, oh, say, health care?
they're gone, and it's gonna get a lot worse
you can't treat the washington press corps the way you do the editorial staffs of the sun times and trib
he's gonna get savaged this summer over the gulf, iran, the mexican drug cartels
if anything happens on the parallel, if israel is forced to take unilateral action, if anything goes down in times square or a movie theater in garden city, kansas...
