Former Bush Special Counsel Scott Bloch’s attempt to get out of his guilty plea has been denied and he will be sentenced to prison today.

Judge Deborah Robinson of the District of Columbia District Court has denied the collusive attempt by Scott Bloch and the DOJ to withdraw the plea agreement that would give him jail time for contempt of Congress.

As you will recall, Scott Bloch is the senior governmental attorney who formerly served as head of the United States Office of Special Counsel: The U.S. Office of Special Counsel (OSC) is an independent federal investigative and prosecutorial agency. Our basic authorities come from four federal statutes: the Civil Service Reform Act, the Whistleblower Protection [...]

The Obama Administration and Holder Justice Department were not willing to make misrepresentations and disingenuous arguments to cravenly insure that Executive Branch officials, including Scott Bloch, lying to Congress do not serve so much as a day in jail.

Judge Vaugn Walker has issued an extremely significant decision in the illegal wiretapping case of al-Haramain v. Bush/Obama. He has awarded damages and attorney fees to the plaintiffs on their claims of illegal and unconstitutional surveillance by the US government.

Bush DOJ hacks Brenda Morris and Leura Canary are still alive and stirring up more political prosecutorial mischief, even in the Obama/Holder DOJ.

Now why do you think the DOJ is having such a tough time answering a very simple question: whether or not they did–as Fred Fielding has claimed–tell the White House that Karl Rove’s alleged actions in the Siegelman prosecution were part of his “official duties” while at the White House?
