Abstract
Hale Boggs’ 1971 denunciation of J. Edgar Hoover was an unexpected and highly controversial rhetorical act. This essay proposes an explanation of why only Boggs stood in Congress to complain about FBI behavior feared by many, through consideration of public and private motives. In addition the accuracy of Boggs’ brief speech is explored.
