Leavitt's deadline
Former Utah Gov. Mike Leavitt has gone on to greater depths as Bush's health secretary.

Lawmakers (even Republicans) say they will bring a contempt citation against Mikey if he doesn't cough up information in an investigation into the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Leavitt promised to resolve the issue. "I feel confident."

The House Energy and Commerce Committee wants documents and interviews with certain FDA employees into whether officials gave bogus testimony on a dangerous antibiotic, Ketek.

Washington makes the smarmy smarmier. Perhaps trout shouldn't swim in circles either? No wonder Romney tanked with brethren like Mikey in DC.
