Massa? WTF?

I don’t think there is anyone who actually believes that Congressman Massa resigned due to his allegedly improper behavior.  In fact, it goes against everything we know about politicians.  They never resign until it actually becomes a huge national-level story.  This wasn’t anything like that until he told us that he was forced to resign.

I honestly don’t know what to believe.  This guy is a total tool bag and he proved it on Glenn Beck’s show tonight.  Glenn said it all by saying that he wasted our time.  The guy had an hour to prove or at least further explain what he was charging the White House with.  He didn’t even come close.  He back tracked and blubbered something about how he screwed himself. 

That seems to play into the logical side of things.  If Massa was truly forced out, then he had nothing to lose.  All he had to do was  speak the truth.  I don’t know if this guy even knows what the truth is.  I don’t think he knows what he is. 

It makes me wonder… is this what Washington is made of?  Holy crap.  We’re in more trouble than I thought. 

So here are my scenarios:

1.  This guy screwed up and resigned before the investigation was plastered all over the news.  He was embarrassed or humiliated and then said the White house forced him out as a childish lash out. Probably because the White House had some harsh words for him when he voted against Obamacare.

2. This guy screwed up and was told to change his vote or resign because the WH had the goods on him.  Then he resigns, but lashes out against the WH and tells them that they are going to get exposed with what he knows.  The WH ignores him and then he shuts up because he doesn’t really know anything.

3.  This guy screwed up and was told to change his vote or resign because the WH had the goods on him.  Then, knowing that Washington is corrupt he decides to tell all on Glenn Beck.  Then something happens to make him change his mind.  And he decides to not say anything bad on TV.  What was it that would have made him change his mind? You got me.  It’s worth looking into.  Maybe he got a dead fish in the mail.

  The WH denied that they forced him out and Robert Gates blubbered, incoherently about something being silly and ridiculous.  He always says that, even when something is completely logical and reasonable.  It really doesn’t seem that far of a stretch to believe that a Chicago-style move was placed on Massa, considering the WH’s reputation for being total failures it’s believable that they might try something so stupid.  But we will probably never  know the truth.
