JWB was the CIA head and then used the 5th to not answer the "arms for hostages" and threw Oliver North under the bus.?

Update:

I'll bet there's a big list of FBI, CIA, NSA, etc that are happy he can't talk about his transgressions.

    Who is JWB? George H W Bush was head of the CIA under Gerald Ford in 1976-77 and never pled the 5th to anything. As Vice President at the time of the Iran Contra affair, he had nothing to do with Oliver North being investigated and subsequently being given immunity by prosecutors.

    Oliver North is a criminal. He belongs in prison for arms trafficking and treason. Is your objection seriously that GWB Sr. is bad because he didn't protect Oliver North?
