Mary Jo White, the former New York federal prosecutor nominated by President Barack Obama to head the Securities and Exchange Commission, may face questions Tuesday about her role in upholding key findings of the NFL's investigation of the so-called Bountygate involving the New Orleans Saints.

Sen. David Vitter, R-La., is planning to ask White about her findings in 2012 after she was hired by the NFL to evaluate its investigation of allegations that Saints players were offered bonuses for hard hits that forced an opposing player to leave a game. Tuesday's Senate Banking Committee hearing, though, is only two hours and it's not certain Vitter will get a turn at questioning White, who is expected to win Senate confirmation....

She absolutely needs to be called out. She got a check to read a couple of paragraphs and walk away. She didn't investigate anything.

Why is there only a two hour limit to the Voir dire process of nominees?!?

And why should candidates be allowed to advance through the process if their is doubt about her ethics and practices?!?

So we actually wonder why there are problems in Washington with this type of Bullshinski?!?

Wait, now I'm confused...

Is she a turd sandwich for being a stool of the oppressive anti-union republican right or

Is she a giant douche for being associated with the Obama administration?

What's a pissed off boy going to think about this???

I don't think the issue is political per se. She needs to be questioned about her dishonest practice of taking a lucrative consulting deal with RG and NFL to help strongly defend and corroborate very poor evidence. Whether she's right or left of the aisle, it's part of her resume and needs to be outed. It's time for her to face the music and answer to it and accept what she did is what she did.

Trust me, she doesn't want to discuss the matter in her confirmation hearing.
