No surprise--with the fox guarding the chicken coop

Mukasey: No prosecutions in Justice Dept. hiring scandal

He "used his sharpest words yet to criticize the senior leaders who took part in or failed to stop illegal hiring practices during the tenure of his predecessor, Alberto Gonzales."

Gosh.

Laws were broken, sure, and the constitution was trampled on, once more, by these clowns but, hey, no big thing, right? Just get back to breaking our justice system--I mean, to your work. Get back to your jobs.

Get a load of this quote, from AG Mukasey: "Not every wrong, or even every violation of the law, is a crime."

Whah?

What did he say?

Not every violation of the law is a crime?

I thought that was the EXACT definition of a crime--a violation of the law.

Oh, yeah. I get it. Not every violation of the law THAT THEY COMMIT is a crime.

Sure. I see that.

It's the way they operate in this Bush Administration.

Boy, when the Bushies went looking for a lapdog to head the Justice Department, they sure found it in Mukasey, in spite of Congress' best intention.
