The Justice Department leaked his plea arrangements. The Attorney General is appointed by the White House. I am not blaming her. The White House has a certain element of control there. White House officials brought in FBI people. They directed the FBI to investigate this. Frankly, without the White House, this travesty would never have occurred. It was people in the White House who absolutely were wrong. Everybody knows today who brought this about. I have to say, Billy Dale went down the drain financially and reputationwise because of people down at the White House, some of whom have greed on their minds with outside people, who did not care about Billy Dale, did not care who they tramped on. They did not care about this poor little guy who served eight Presidents, and his colleagues, and put them through an untold amount of misery, that he still is suffering from, and has broken them without any justification whatsoever, not any. Even Peat Marwick agrees with that.
