The highlight of yesterday's Congressional hearing over a sketchy Hewlett-Packard investigation came when Congressman Greg Walden asked HP ex-chair Patricia Dunn, if she didn't know investigators were lying to phone companies to get targets' phone records, how she thought they got them.

The best part: when Walden utters, "You're serious." Poor guy's face freezes in disbelief for about five seconds.

The pause is brilliant, btw. I'm almost not certainly they didn't pause the clip.

And "that's a transcription; I don't recall using those words" is a fantastic quote.

Clip doesn't pause; he just holds really still. Watch the arm of the glasses, it moves a little bit.

She really does seem clueless enough to have thought that the information was available to private investigators using legal means. Walden seems like a real prick.

Walden seems like a real jerk.
