Seems like failure to confront the President with his accuser is on its own sufficient grounds to acquit him. The whistleblower is analogous to the guy finding a dead body and calling the cops. If prosecutors dont need him to make their case, the fact that he led to the investigation is irrelevant; the accused murderer doesnt get to question him. In any case, Rand is surely protected by the Speech and Debate Clause (and I think the Whistleblower Protection Act wouldnt apply to him anyway). That doesnt mean hes not a massive piece of shit, though. --- Congrats to Advokaiser for winning the CBX Guru Challenge! <cite>LordoftheMorons posted [p:933929604] in Politics C...
