Former Aide Challenges Dems

Former Aide Challenges Dems

Bill Frist's staffer who was forced to resign files a formal complaint against the Dems and their confirmation tactics.

Think this will make a difference? Don't hold your breath.

The Reps don't have the stones to follow through with this as they have proved over and over again.

Former Aide in Memo Leak Seeks Probe of Dems

Manuel Miranda , who worked for Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, has filed a complaint with the Senate Ethics Committee charging that hundreds of damning memos currently in the hands of investigators prove serious public corruption by Democratic senators and their aides.

"I have knowledge of other still unpublished documents that evidence a violation of the public trust in the judicial confirmation process on the part of Democratic senators on the Senate Judiciary Committee," Miranda wrote in a complaint to the ethics panel on Monday.

"This includes evidence of the direct influence of the Senate’s advice and consent role by the promise of campaign funding and election support in the last mid-term election."
