unfair assessment, this is a way to get some -- i think critics would describe it as hush money, but a way to get money quickly to people so they get their complaint away and don't go to the press. >> and the sub story here is also that people -- a lot of folks that they quoted said working on capitol hill, they don't feel they can go to this committee because they feel they're going to be castigated for disloyalty if they even seek any help through this agency. >> we see this all the time, not just with this group, but also with the house ethics committee, and all of these other things. it's a universe that is controlled by the members of congress. these are very powerful people, and they have written laws that give themselves broad latitude for dealing with employees. it's stuff that you would never get away with in the private sector because we have lots of rules incidentally written by congress, too, that deal with what your rights are and how these things work. but they play by a different set of rules. martha: if anybody would be accounted -- accountable to
