What I find so troubling is that an office so far away from the power centers, that
is supposedly under the aegis of the Inspector General (which, constitutionally, is
the watcher of the watchers), could hide such an implication, as well as cover up
the coverup, and conduct a vandetta against people in their organization who still
beleive in public oversight. That Ron Brown may have been murdered is not in my
opinion, the important thing. I do, however, think that there is an important
national security possibility here: That the administration could be covering this
up, becuase he might have been killed by the serbs, in order to prevent public
sentiment to come down in favor of a more vietnam-like involvement in Bosnia. If
this is the case, what they are doing could be laudable, but even then, I would say
that they still have handled things badly, as they have not gotten all involved
parties vetted and sworn to secrecy over this matter. Yeah, Im damning them if they
did and if they didn't, so what, its the incompetence that counts.

So True.
