This newspaper continues to advocate that the investigation into the Customs/Fidelity fraud be allowed to run its course, guided unerringly by the commitment given by the President that the investigation will be thorough, that it will “dig deep,” that there will be no immunity for people who might wish to activate their political connections, that the architects of the fraud will get their just deserts and that the investigation will extend beyond the Fidelity fraud.
We hold to this position despite the diametrically opposing view of individuals and institutions who have the same right to an opinion on the matter; and we understand fully what motivates the opposing sentiments. Quite simply, it is a matter of cynicism rooted in precedent.
