Given that the major role that the LA office plays, however, (including its handling of the investigation of Rep. Jerry Lewis (R-CA)). Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) wants some answers about the move.

The pot calling the kettle black. Diane is only doing to so the Bush Administration will give her husband another contract. Diane and Chuck put Musk Rat in office because of their kick backs.
