text: This latest eposode in this long, painful saga is reminding me of the Iran Contra hearings when Sen. Dan Inouye was grilling Oliver North and John Poindexter about who was holding the smoking gun in the whole matter. My Pop always told the story of when he saw the hearings, with emphasis on the moment Poindexter told Inouye that the buck stopped with him. 
  
  Inouye couldn't nail then President Reagan, and the men who were assigned to receive the kill shot to protect the president, stood there and took it. they knew that the punishment for any of this would never reach the level of truly impeding their life. I am sure at this point, as mentioned below, if Don Jr. is the bullet taker for his dad, and that the buck stopped with him on this, and that the bloodthirsty politicians who want "someone to pay" make him pay, all the better for this country because frankly we got to get back to work from this.
