The New McCarthyism
How many leakers besides CIA's Mary McCarthy? Cracking down on pro-Democrat holdovers. Plus: Katherine Harris not out of the woods.
(Page 2 of 2)
GETTING SERIOUS br> We probably haven't heard the last of Rep. Katherine Harris 's $2,000-plus dinner with former defense contractor Mitchell Wade . In fact, now that Rep. Alan Mollohan (D-WV) has resigned from the House Ethics Committee, there is talk that Harris's relationship with Wade may become a full blown ethics investigation. And the request may come from Republicans. /p>"We have to get the ethics investigation up and running," says a senior House leadership aide. "We have cases like Harris, Mollohan, as well as some House Democratic leadership issues to look into. We have to let the American people know that we take these kinds of charges and situations seriously. The Senate should do the same. They could easily look at Harry Reid and his relationship to Jack Abramoff, as well as the activities of several Senate Republicans, and send a clear message to the American people."
