Jonathan, perhaps the reason you have seen only innuendo regarding the various law firms at Gitmo derives from the fact that the MSM is highly selective about which issues are worth investigating. Anything involving Halliburton? Of course. The possibility that Joe Wilson was “discredited” by the White House? You bet. But until Claudia Rosett began writing about the UN Oil-for-Food program, there was little more than innuendo in the MSM about that, too.

A question: If law firms the Saudis do have on retainer also have attorneys assigned to do pro bono work at Gitmo would you agree that at least gives the appearance of a conflict of interests?
