Peter Principle and the Senate
Well, we finally have one member of Congress, Sen. Jay Rockerfeller, acknowledging that he’s not competent to do the job he’s been elected to do: “I feel unable to fully evaluate, much less endorse, these activities,” West Virginia Sen. Jay Rockefeller, the Senate Intelligence Committee’s top Democrat, said in a handwritten letter to Vice President Dick Cheney in July 2003. “As you know, I am neither a technician nor an attorney.” He forgot to add that he’s unable to demand that the person briefing him explain the matter in simple terms.
It’s hard to add much to that, except to say he’s lying!
