Waxman Wants to Hear from Buzzy Krongard
Sure enough, Rep. Henry Waxman wrote yesterday to Buzzy Krongard to sort out whether or not his brother, State Department Inspector General Howard "Cookie" Krongard, truthfully testified to Waxman's committee that Buzzy never told him about joining the advisory board of State Department contractor Blackwater.
Waxman didn't subpoena Krongard, but asked if he'd consent to a "transcribed interview" by November 30. He also wants a couple pieces of documentation. From Waxman's letter (pdf):
1. All documents reflecting communications to or from (a) Erik Prince, (b) Blackwater USA or any parent companies, subsidiaries, or affiliated companies thereof (collectively, "Blackwater"); or (c) any officers, employees, or other persons affiliated with Blackwater.2. All documents, including phone records, relating to communications with Howard J. Krongard regard Erik Prince or Blackwater.
3. All other documents relating to Blackwater or your relationship with Blackwater.

I really can't believe these two brothers couldn't get their scheming together, but am certainly glad they didn''t.

why try and get your crap together when you can expect the 'scooter treatment' for any and all possible legal entanglements?
