Special prosecutor needed

Apparently Congressman Joe Sestak, a retired three-star vice admiral, has forgotten one important rule, which is "loose lips sink ships."

He made a claim that the Obama administration offered him a high-ranking federal job in exchange for dropping his Democratic primary challenge to U.S. Sen. Arlen Specter.

Some people will believe Sestak is lying, and some people will believe that the Obama administration is practicing Chicago-style politics.

If this is true, this is a typical case of bribery, election interference by government officials, and political use of federal jobs.

I think in order to clear this up, there needs to be an investigation by a special prosecutor.
