Kay Bailey Hutchison on ***** ("THE RULE OF LAW") vs. outing CIA agent ("MINOR TECHNICALITY") |
"I certainly hope that if there is going to be an indictment . . .
that it is an indictment on a crime and not some perjury technicality
where they couldn't indict on the crime and so they go to something
just to show that their two years of investigation was not a waste of
time and taxpayer dollars. So they go to something that trips someone
up because they said something in the first grand jury and then maybe
they found new information or they forgot something and they tried to
correct that in a second grand jury.
"I think we should be very careful here, especially as we are dealing
with something very public and people's lives in the public arena."
-- Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-Tex.) discussing the Fitzgerald leak
investigation on NBC's "Meet the Press," Oct. 23, 2005.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I do think . . . that something needs to be said that is a clear
message that our rule of law is intact and the standards for perjury
and obstruction of justice are not gray. And I think it is most
important that we make that statement and that it be on the record for
history.
"I very much worry that with the evidence that we have seen that grand
juries across America are going to start asking questions about what
is obstruction of justice, what is perjury. And I don't want there to
be any lessening of the standard. Because our system of criminal
justice depends on people telling the truth, the whole truth, and
nothing but the truth."
-- Hutchison discussing President Bill Clinton's impeachment at a news
conference, Feb. 5, 1999.
