At Least He Didn't Organize Horse Shows

Timothy Flanigan's former boss is in the big house. Now, he's recommended for a job by the White House.

Mr Flanigan used to be a corporate lawyer for Tyco International Ltd. Tyco CEO Dennis Kozlowski is off for a 25 year stint in prison.

But Tyco's lobbyist now admits he's been lobbying Senators to approve Mr Flanigan's nomination as Deputy US Attorney General.

When you're a company likely to be under federal investigation, it doesn't hurt to have friends at the top. (LAT)
