Three cheers for the House Committee On The Judiciary for boldly recognizing that the DOJ holds the precarious power of selective prosecution and then conducting an investigation when such powers appear to
have been abused. That this instance involves the alleged abuse of selective prosecution under political motivations subjects the entire effort to public doubt, and more importantly pales in comparison to the corruptive influence upon Federal selective prosecutions due to financial motivation, conflict of interest, extortion of public officials, and even ethnic bias. Why initiate an investigation against corruption which is solely politically motivated when doing so embraces the
supremacy of politics over justice?

Doesn't the House recognize that the many billions of dollars made by organized crime
each year in the U.S. are made amidst this closed culture of selective prosecution and the revolving door between Biglaw (with their criminal corporate and hedge fund clients) and the DOJ? Former U.S. Attorney General John D. Ashcroft acknowledged corruption in Law Enforcement and the Judiciary and that "We know that we can only detect, investigate and prosecute a small percentage of those officials who are corrupt".

Consider that former U.S. Attorney Eliot Spitzer was doing business with a prostitution wing of a number of organized crime families at the same time when he was under oath to prosecute those associates. Are we surprised that Spitzer only prosecuted certain competitors of his associates? Are we surprised that Spitzer refused to investigate or refer the recording of a death threat against the whistle-blower to fraud in the Worldcom Bankruptcy?

Consider the crimes in the eToys bankruptcy case including bribery, extortion, and financial retribution against the whistle-blower who would
not allow the estate to be looted for the benefit of the undisclosed conflicted clients of the bankruptcy professionals.

Let's remove the political blinders and open our eyes to the few corrupt attorneys within the DOJ and the Judiciary who protect and promote the suit wearing organized crime syndicates of the financial world who have brought us the age of modern mega-case corporate fraud,
massive structured finance fraud (being spun to the masses as the "sub prime credit crisis"), and the not uncommon conversion
of our civil and bankruptcy court system from a mechanism to resolve disputes between parties into an extortionate playground outside the rule of law and bullied by Biglaw attorneys.

Eliot Spitzer has been both a customer and a protector of organized crime since he was a prosecutor and NY Attorney General. This press release shows that Spitzer ignored the death threat by an attorney, admitted before a civil judge, in order to protect organized crime in bankruptcy courts known as "bankruptcy rings" which Congress sought to fight since the early 1900s. www.lawyersunregulated.blogspot.com Spitzer was owned by criminals. Look at the similar patterns of fraud that happened in Worldcom, Enron, and eToys. Look at the admitted death threat in Worldcom Only Martha Stewart, rap stars, and baseball stars go to prison for such crimes, lawyers who are connected with organized crime merely manipulate the corrupted government officials that they own. Sorry to say that the U.S.A. is permeated with public corruption at the highest levels of our government in law enforcement and the Judiciary. Hey Barack Obama: Are you really for "change", or are you just a "new boss, same as the old boss"?
