We sure have been hearings a bipartisan theme song over the last year “time to move on, turn the page, a new chapter” hogwash.

But out here in the peasants world folds are held accountable for all sorts of non violent crimes and do plenty of time in prison for them. The Bush administration thugs (including Mukasey) who have continuously operated below the law look like they are going to walk.

What a twisted pathetic message. I truly do not know how any of these upper level criminals can wonder why there is no respect for our so called justice system across this nation.

I am hoping that the Bushies screw up the cover-up as badly as they screwed up everything else. It would be a sad irony if the only thing they did competently was covering their tracks.</p> I agree completely.

They have “accidentally” managed to defeat protocols which were relatively foolproof a quarter century ago.
