I have nothing amusing or snarky to say about Don Young. I just want to see this hopelessly corrupt and venal piece of garbage out of the House and behind bars as soon as possible.

The regime knows this. Leaving office won't (shouldn't) save them.
What are their plans?
Bush will probably pardon the lot his last day in Office, then resign and let Cheney pardon him!
That will eliminate any domestic criminal liability, though it shouldn't bar congressional inquiry into the wholesale illegality that Bush and Co. are culpable for. (Hey, they can't plead the 5th).
My consolation is the real risk of international war crimes prosecution these scum face should they leave the US as private citizens. Serves 'em right.

Honestly, it would have been better if the Senate had rejected this despicable hack when it was clear he was going to provide legal cover for the Bush torture crowd during his confirmation hearings. That way the Nation wouldn't have an AG and the essentially lawless nature of the Administration would have even more obvious.
Mukasey's "practical consideration" without legal precedent rationale says it all. What a whore.

Awesome. I gotta swing by Barak's website and contribute my $25.

And now, years later, Congress is working with the president, attempting to put in place permanent legislation that would essentially enable this kind of nimble, modern-day surveillance to address the needs of the intelligence community in light of changes in technology and in light of the particular threat that is posed by international terrorists who hide out in communities here in the U.S. and other countries around the world.
In other words, if I string enough "lions and tigers and bears" scare clauses into this endless, run-on sentence you won't see that what I really mean by "nimble" is "illegal."Posted at March 18, 2008 6:49 PM in response to Administration's Lawyer Lauds "Healthy Process of Back and Forth"
