I am sure she has something else lined up for her

There are a lot of people calling this Britain's Watergate.

Andy Coulson. I kept repeating that name in my head. It seemed familiar.

It's close.

Charles Colson.

Spooky.:eek:

I am sure all managers that employ 56,000 people know what every single one of them are doing at all times.

How is he able to keep up with that young volley ball playing, MBA grad from Yale, and crouching tiger of a woman?

Is she a gold digger? Who are we to judge :rofl:

Not knowing isn't quite the same as denying any wrongdoing though.

It's the same with Cameron denying there were any complaints about Coulson when clearly there were. Even from his own deputy.:confused:
