Dan Abrams continues his series on how the Bush administration (in particular, Dick Cheney and Karl Rove) has wreaked havoc on the Department of Justice with a look today at how corrupted and nastily partisan prosecutions have become, with the DoJ going after more than five times the number of Democrats as Republicans and using party and Bush loyalty as the overriding criteria for hiring attorneys.
Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse:
The Bush administration forgot that the sign outside says "United States Department of Justice" not "Bush Administration Department of Justice". And the cost to us has been as a country and the cost to the department in particular has been terribly high.

As I was listening last night to an NPR piece about the Pakistani justice department being stacked in favor of Musharraf I had to laugh at the irony.
Not even a tiny bit surprising. One of the many, many problems with this is that there are millions or retards who think that there's nothing wrong with this kind of thing. Well, as long as Clinton's not doing it.
I think Nancy Pelosi, Stenny Hoyer, Jay Rockefeller, and Harry Reid need to immediately take this outrageously damaging reporting and go straight to the White House, so that they can pass some new legislation which Bush Jr. tells them to.
I'm reluctant to look a gift horse in the mouth, but, I'm so glad that Abrams learned that liberalism sells! Now if more news stations can get the message then maybe we will get the liberal media bias that the repubs has been promising us for 7 years now.
Let's hope that when "we" run the media that we will restore a sense of "fairness" and not become a rabid partisan bulldozer that the right has been, while pointing the finger, and playing the "blame game" at our side!
yeah, too bad nothing is being done repair that terribly high damage. just keep on, keeping on.
This is why I was so disgusted by Schumer's and Feinstein's vote for Mukasey, justified by the faulty reasoning that the Justice Dept. needed to be fixed. As if it was broken because of Gonzalez's incompetence. Its broken because Cheney and gang broke it and wanted it broken. No AG is going to fix it unless you clean house at the White House as well.
Bob @ 4:
Seven years? This bullshit has been touted since Reagan took office.
Does anyone here think Dan Abrams was ever a "loyal Bushie"? Was he ever guilty of mindlessly spouting BushCo propaganda? If so, why should we trust him now?
But, but but... Clinton did it too! [/GOPretort]
I'm wondering if some of these talking heads feel safe to talk about this stuff now because bush only has one more year in the white house. Have they been taken off the leash now and are able to run free?
This is a nice change on the network from waterboarding apologist Joe Scar
Corrupt Attorney Generals are a Republican tradition since 1980
xoites, I think you have forgotten John Mitchell
This series is extremely useful.
bob @ 13:
Ok, i did. But i have to admit my view of him softened a bit when his wife went berzerk in front of the White House claiming Nixon was going to kill him for betraying him.
I saw it live and never heard about it again.
I mean, what do we do?
The rePUGs have turned this nation into a some kind of toxic waste dump with the kind of crap that they have produced from day to day. and it seems that they wont give up un till they have seriously crippled the nation and ended the middle class and represenative government for most of us.
on the other hand my demonCRATs have just gone along with this garbage and seem to roll over at every turn. Every Turn!
This Country is no longer viable and I think that whatever we do will be the will be the same as what came about in all great nations that have passed into oblivion.
Anybody else have these feelings. I mean is this my particular brand of mental hysteria?
OK, the writing's on the wall. If you have a fear of being busted, or just don't think you'd enjoy the experience, or have enough busted experience to not want to repeat it,
PRETEND TO BE A REPUBLICAN.
You know, wear a goofy hat, develop a fetish for collecting scraps of toilet paper from toilet floors, act coy when someone taps your foot, read Kraft-Ebbing so you can fake the symptoms of sexually-oriented dementia, pretend a messiah complex, vote for the rich, against the poor, just say 'No' to kids and health, say 'Yes' to tax credits for purchase of yachts over 150 feet, allow deductions for Lamborghinis used for business purposes, or by lobbyists, never say 'No' to bribes offered as 'political contributions, and keep track of the market value of your grandmother.
natisman @ 16:
No, its not. It is shared by many. We now live on a planet where goods are shipped freely but people are compartmentalized and restricted. Some of us are not allowed to fly and are not allowed to ask why. Ted Kennedy was on the no fly list for 16 months!
Martha Mitchell was a fucking wingnut, too. Her sanity was ALWAYS in question. The Republican party has been a crime syndicate since the end of WW2. Nixon was always a scammer. The Dulles brothers committed us to the cold war completely. There MIGHT have been an easing of tensions years earlier if not for them. It's apparent that Nixon left lots of messes for Kennedy, including the Bay of Pigs plan and Vietnam escalation. I don't want to rehash 60 years of post WW2 history, but it seems abundantly clear that the Republicans have been wrong about everything at every turn.
On inauguration day, the new president should put on a hazmat suit, stand on the steps of the white house and say to the American people, "I'm goin' in. Wish me luck"
This really underscores the duplicity of Shumer and Feinstein giving Mukasey a pass to Attorney General.
Mukasey is dyed in wool "unitary executive" apostle and will do nothing to correct the Bush de-volution of Justice into political hatchet squad.
This needs to be a top question for Democratic candidates: What will you do to restore our government? How will you clean house of Bush ideological appointees/implants throughout the government, particularly in Justice?
Don't hold your breath.
DON'T OBEY.
bob @ 19:
Oh, i think we should rehash it. There are things we all need to be reminded of.
So let me get my facts and history right...
To Impeach... an Intern has to commit a sex act in the oval office and the commander and thief (chief) has to lie about it, to take effect?
Anything else is fair game...
Is this true?
T-myers @ 23:
It would appear so, Grasshopper.
T-myers @ 23:
No, you need evidence of high crimes and misdemeanors and a Congress that upholds the Constitution. Right now one of these things is missing.
Indigowatcher @ 8:
I don't think he was a loyal bushie so much as he IS a loyal dollar follower, meaning when right wing sells he a huge right wing blow hard. Now that he has seen that Olbermann's ratings are high he is floating a left wing balloon. If the ratings for this "week long series" are low, or if he gets ridiculed because of it, then he'll go right back to the "dark side".
Follow the money Abrams!
T-myers @ 23:
As I remember it the government was closed down because their was no budget passed. So Clinton closed everything down. Noone was in the WH, no work was getting done, and when on vacation, and the opportunity pops up, is it really a crime to go for the gusto?
Off Topic, sort of...
It looks like the Dems are going to fund the war without restrictions. Maybe Nancy will kiss George under the Mistletoe at the White House Christmas Party?

Screw Abrams. Like with Cal Thomas in the earlier thread, too little too late. At least I'll give Ol' Gospel Tyme Cal a pass because he's just a rightwing columnist while Abrams is an alleged journalist. This has been obviously been going on for a long time, and the facts presentable to anyone, but only after seeing the traction KO has achieved in the media marketplace with his honest, unforced and spot-on criticism of this farce of an administration did Abrams decide to run the story.
Screw him.
And I've always hated his delivery anyway.
roundhead @ 29:
But how do you really feel!
He is also exaggerating the figures, a complaint we have had with the right. Nitpicking, but 140 goes in 640 4.5 times, not 6 times. If you are going to scream at the "rulers of the free world" get ALL your talking points correct! Or you're no better than they are.
roundhead @ 29:
It would nice if everyone in the media had pure intent, but they don't. If they did we would never have invaded Iraq, spying on Americans would have ended this Administration and buying a Lotto ticket would be a great investment for the future.
Sometimes people do the right thing for the wrong reasons, at least they got it half right so don't discourage others from taking that first step. We need more media talking heads pried out of their media asses.
roundhead @ 29:
Truth is, MSNBC top brass had kept reporting like this from happening. It wasn't until things at the top changed that reporting like this could happen.
Would we have liked to have this reporting before ... of course, should we be thankful it's happening now ... your damn right. Dan is a Lawyer and his team is doing some good investigative reporting here .... give him credit. Your person feelings a bout how Abrams delivers his items is not important, what is contained in those items is.
Bob @ 30:
He said, "almost" six times which is about as accurate news/information/entertainment ever gets in this country.
doj: run by the atty of the year! pathetic!
I won't hold my breath waiting for mucky to fix it.
Just a reminder. Don't forget the Dems debate today at 2:00 pm (eastern time) :)
xoites defends Constitution @ 25:
Yes the rule of law and the truth... thats what"s missing...
Despite how screwed-up things may seem, we've all been offered an opportunity, en masse, to have a once-in-a-lifetime, never-to-be-repeated, experience:
TIME TRAVEL!
Close your eyes for a minute (seriously, bear with me). Now open them, and pretend you're in the last year of the Roman Empire. Enjoy the sights, the smells, the sounds, the NEWS. This is it!
Get into it, put on a sheet, wrap some ivy around your head. Buy a dagger, try to get next to Bush. Learn to play the violin, practice while standing on your deck, overlooking the barbeque pit. If you're not gay, pretend you are. Have your favorite artist sketch your wife, or 'significant other', enjoying Sapphic pleasures while vacationing on the Isle of Lesbos. Got to Senate meetings, and shout 'Aye', or 'Nay', on a whim, depending upon how much Mead you've imbibed.
Trade your Prius in on a Chariot. You'll get even better MPG, though the emissions may bother you, at first. After you've affixed your kitchen knife set to the wheels, race your Chariot around the town square, scaring the crap out of any pedestrians you happen to find. Shout 'Veni, Vidi, Vici' at every opportunity. Live, man, live, you're on top of the world!
But beware, around the middle of March, don't go to any meetings held on the steps of a large public meeting.
America! Wake up! There is ONLY an illusion still being crammed down your collective throats! They are all in the same bed! LOOK...don't LISTEN ! Democrats were elected and "look" at how many of our "true- blue Americans" voted for those same Bills that is literally destroying our rights! Forget the "left and right"....RIGHT or WRONG is the truth based wholly on :Does it do the greatest good for greatest number of the people! Truth stands totally independent of "opinions". (IE) Truth=greatest good for the greatest number! Why the endless debate??!
Eric Almighty @ 2:
You said it for me! Thanks!!
Really? They've politicized the justice department? Well wasn't that part of the mandate when we "elected" Bush in 2000 and 2004? I we living in bizarro world? Doesn't this rise to the level of an impeachable offense? What does congress think it's doing? What does this President have to do to get impeached, oh that's right have sexual contact with someone that isn't his wife. Because that affects us more than illegal wiretapping, rendition, illegal wars, lying to congress, ignoring subpeonas, negligence during Katrina, Abramhoff, Haliburton, Blackwater, attorney firings, Valerie Plame, negligence in post war planning, threatening countries with violence, Abu Ghrab, and condoning torture.
If elected I'll appoint this guy to head the DOJ:

ysbaddaden @ 40:
Don't you mean "appointed?"
One of the problems I have with Abrams is his delivery. Very over the top with needless inflections and overemphasis on adjectives. He's right out of the John Stossel school of journalism, and I think it weakens his credibility and therefor the credibility of his reports. He does the same thing when unscripted, during his guest interview sections. He has the right questions, he has the facts, but his style is almost embarrassing.
kaT @ 14:
We don't get MSNBC so I want to thank C & L for showing these videos.
Nobodies gonna do shit about any of this. That chimp is gonna 'sprint to the end' like he said he would.
I'm getting so sick of all this bullshit being thrust upon this country by the fuckin nazi republicans! They just block the energy bill...by one fucking vote! and the spineless dems said they'll gut the tax increases for oil companies to get the bill passed...
Btw...I just watched the doc "who killed the electric car?" I guess I'm still fuming over that mess....gah!!! this country is run by evil evil people, and populated with lazy, ignorant, brainwashed consumers.
It's vast.
It's right-wing.
And it damn sure is a conspriracy!
Too much damage has been done is such a short time that these plans must have been made well in advance. Most likely, all these so-called think-tanks like the American Enterprise Institute, the Hertitage Foundation, and the Standford Hoover Institute are responsible for these seditious plans and their subsequent implementation. Instead of investigating peaceful protestors, the FBI should be infilftrating these subversive groups who are undermining our government.
Does anyone know if the unqualified Bushies they hired can be fired when a Dem takes office? Or are we stuck with these Regents losers?
liberalNmoderation @ 45:
ain't that the truth
Evidence has been piling up against these crooked thugs for seven very long years and we have taken impeachment off the table. I believe a case could be made that even the most callous Republicans wouldn't want to go on record defending. We are in an election year when many of them will need to run for reelection. It's not only a good time to bring impeachment against these bastards but it is the duty of the Congress to do so. Now is not the time to be polite and cowardly but that is the Congress we have. We the People have been thrown out of the DC Clubhouse.
like what you see and hear?
tell them so!!!

Rachel Maddow was right, we're not seeing the forest for the trees. We look at each of the myriad scandals of the last 7 years individually without ever looking at the message they create as a whole. All this is is one more stage in consolodation of total authoritarian power. The Executive, DoJ, CIA, Private Mercenaries, Legislation paralysis, state controlled media, re-writing or circumventing the constitution, state surveilance, it's an attempt at consolidation. They have far too much invested in this to allow real, legitimate elections or take any chance on losing this consolidation. 2008 is gonna be a hell of a year.
another example of domestic terrorism by the Bush administration
Rollo Tomassi @ 51:
Oh my yes! It will be one for the history books. Hopefully, America won't be a footnote.
Dick Cheney rules..
People ought to understand that the DOJ is not the President's personal goon squad. Sheesh.
At the same time, may I delude myself into thinking that impeachment is off the table because congresscritters want international law to kick in and clean up this mess called the Bush Administration? There's no political cost to them within the country, just a complete bankruptcy of America's standing in the world community.
What has happened is that MY Democratic party has been infiltrated by Republican types. It really is that simple. And the DLC takes the major blame for steering our party and country to the right when the country really wants something in the center. The so-called "centrist" in our party are not centrist per se. They are RIGHT WING types who need to be booted out of our party. That would include Feinstein, Schulster, LIEberman, etc.
And let's not forget Ralph Emanuel from Chicago who has steered the so-called DLC move to the right of our party. Get rid of him!
I ain't moving away from the Democratic Party. I'm getting rid of all that trash that does not belong in the Democratic party who are also to blame for the destruction of our democracy.
We need better Democrats ... the Democrats who go for the right things not the wrong things like our current crop of enablers.
Can someone answer me this: WHY are BUSH/CHENEY still in office? Why have these guys NOT been impeached?! Has this naiton been overthrown? WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE?!!!!!!
perhaps someone's pointed this out already but the numbers on the graphs (631 v. 142) and Abrams 'nearly 6 times greater' statement' and the good prof's 5.6 times precision do not compute..
maybe we're too Shocked and Awed by the impudence of our oligarchs.. Naomi Klein's book, The Shock Doctrine, is very relevant
It may be too late and too impractical for a successful impeachment but it behooves us to go on record with at least a mumblin word.
Dan Abrams first caught my eye during the OJ trial. Hired by MSNBC he at first seemed to sink into the go-to lawyer guy for comments on missing white girls and criminal acts by celebrities.
I think Abrams, as a lawyer who sees what's happening to this country, has become alarmed enough to enter the fray and denounce the criminal acts and hypocricy of this administration. It also could be that his cable channel sees the strong ratings of Olberman and has decided to let a little more light into this important debate about the terrible direction this country has been heading.
I've been very heartened to hear him coming out strong for honesty, transparency and decency in government lately and backing it up with lawyerly facts.
Good going Dan!
Senators vote to hold Bush chief of staff, Rove in contempt
RAW STORY

US lawmakers vote to hold Bolten, Rove in contempt

Dec 13, 2007 10:36 EST
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee voted Thursday to hold two top aides to President Bush in contempt of Congress for refusing to cooperate in its probe of fired federal prosecutors.
On a largely party-line vote of 11-7, the Democratic-led panel sent contempt citations against White House Chief of Staff Josh Bolten and former Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove to the full Senate for consideration.
As with many of Bush's battles with the Democratic-led Senate, the president may ultimately prevail since his fellow Republicans may be able to block the citations with a procedural hurdle.
Bush has claimed executive privilege to protect aides from complying with congressional subpoenas demanding documents or testimony in an investigation into the firing last year of nine U.S. attorneys. The committee has rejected his privilege claim as unfounded.

Subject: Pelosi and Harman Were Part of 9/11 Coverup
Pelosi and Harman Were Part of 9/11 Coverup
by George Washington Page 1 of 1 page(s)
December 13, 2007 at 11:27:48
http://www.opednews.com
House Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi is blocking efforts to impeach Bush and Cheney, or to take any other real steps to save America. One of the grounds for impeachment is that the government made knowingly false claims about 9/11.
Congresswoman Jane Harman chaired the hearing of the House Subcommittee on Homeland Security which pushing for the labeling 9/11 truth sites as terrorist incubators.
What do these two congresswomen have in common? They were both part of the 9/11 cover up.
Veteran reporter Robert Scheer gives the background in his opinion piece today in the San Francisco Chronicle. The first two lines of the piece set the stage:
"When the CIA destroyed those prisoner interrogation videotapes, were they also destroying the truth about Sept. 11, 2001? After all, according to the 9/11 Commission report, the basic narrative of what happened on that day - and the nature of the enemy in this war on terror that Bush launched in response to the tragedy - comes from the CIA's account of what those prisoners told their torturers.
Scheer then moves on to Pelosi and Harman' role in the cover up:
But what about those congressional leaders who were briefed on the torture program as early as 2002? That includes Democrats like Nancy Pelosi . . . .
Pelosi claimed that "several months later" her successor as the ranking Democrat, Rep. Jane Harman of Los Angeles County, was advised the techniques "had in fact been employed" and wrote a classified letter to the CIA in protest, and Pelosi "concurred." Neither went public with her concerns.
Harman told the Washington Post "I was briefed, but the information was closely held to just the Gang of Four . . . an insider reference to the top members of the House and Senate intelligence committees . . . .
Not only did the congressional Gang of Four fail to inform the public about the use of torture by our government but they also kept the 9/11 Commission in the dark.
Pelosi testified before the commission on May 22, 2003 but uttered not a word of caution about the methods used. However, more than two years later on Nov. 16, 2005, Pelosi stated correctly that on the basis of her "many years on the intelligence committee," she knew that "The quality of intelligence that is collected by torture is ... uncorroborated and it is worthless."
***
As matters now stand, they not only concealed torture but, more significantly, they abetted the waterboarding of our democracy.
Pelosi and Harman played an instrumental role in the 9/11 cover up by keeping their knowledge about the interrogation videotapes secret from the 9/11 Commission and from the American people (they weren't the only ones who knew). This is made all the worse because Pelosi knew that intelligence "collected by torture" is worthless, and yet she never even hinted to the Commission or to anyone else that the CIA's version of events should be questioned. They could have stopped the whole farce cold -- but they chose to go along with it.
These two congresswomen -- who are fighting against 9/11 truth -- previously aided and abetted the 9/11 cover up. Is that why they don't want the truth to come out?
Note: Rather than being progressives, Pelosi and Harman actually appear to be alligned with the Neoconservatives in many respects.

Ted Lang
The arrogance and unrelenting contempt that the Cheney-Bush administration has for the American people and the people’s Congress continuously verified and on public display, has reached exceedingly dangerous levels. The administration’s contempt for Congress and its controlling Democrats is unprecedented in the history of this now rapidly failing experiment in republic-based individual freedom. It is contempt for the very foundation of our societal achievements, a pilgrims’ progress based upon creativeness and industry collectively enjoyed by a nation that formerly depended upon rugged individualism and hard work. It is a contempt that places parasitic bureaucracy and authoritarian government over the rights of individuals that built this nation and made it great. It is a contempt that grows daily and feeds upon itself capitalizing upon the treason and cowardice of the Democratic Party.

All this and impeachment is 'off the table'?
How bad does it have to get?

Is there anything, and low, that Bush hasn't already done or sunk to that would put it back 'on the table'? I really want to know!
Why impeachment is off the table.
by Michael Chavers Page 1 of 1 page(s)

http://www.opednews.com
Well maybe it is a little clearer why the first thing Pelosi did after she became speaker of the house was to take impeachment off the table.
According to the Washington Post beginning in 2002 leading lawmakers both Republican and Democrat where briefed on the so called enhanced interrogation techniques including waterboarding. The lawmakers who held oversight roles during that time period included Nancy Pelosi, Jane Harman, Bob Graham, John Rockefeller IV, Porter Goss, and Pat Roberts.
The only one that objected the technique was Representative Jane Harmon.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/12/08/AR200712...
So it looks as though Speaker Pelosi and other Democrats have colluded with the Bush administrations torture techniques because she knew about them but did not report them.
Senator Biden has called for an independent counsel to investigate the destruction of the torture tapes that have been in the news for the last week. It seems though Senator Jay Rockefeller D(W.V.) chairman of the Senate intelligence Committee does not think there is a need for an independent counsel because he said “ it is the job of the intelligence committee to do that.” I believe that the foxes are guarding the hen house.
This is starting to make some sense why after the Democrats took control of Congress that no serious investigation of this administrations lawlessness has occurred.
We the people need to make sure that there is an independent counsel appointed to investigate the destruction of the terror tapes and to determine who is complicit in this administrations total disregard for the rule of law.
The fox should not be guarding the hen house and we must enhance the improvements already made in Congresses ethics reform laws this year to include, a standing independent investigating body to watch Congress and the President. Without this who are we to trust, the politicians?????
Peace and Liberty through intelligence, strength, and integrity.

I hope the next president, which will probably be a Democrat, can reverse this and make the DOJ into what it should be and not into an administration's personal law firm.
DoJ to be renamed Liddy, Libby & Turdblossom.
thanks gonzo, you've done a 'heckuvajob' for duhbya and dead-eye dick.
Yet Republicans still get caught so much more often than Democrats... somehow....
So this is "compassionate conservatism"?
This is the party of "values"? This is the "religious right"?
Hypocrytes! Or as the Master said (and I paraphrase) '
"Whited sepulchres...shiny and clean on the outside, but they are like rotten, smelly, maggot-ridden carcasses, within."
If impeachment should ever be employed, it is with this evil, arrogant, greedy, vindictive, vicious and deceptive group of
twits. Stand up America and take back your country!
Political profiling: 631 DEM, 142 GOP... The audio says that Dems were targeted "6 times more than republicans." Well based on those numbers, it's clearly less than 5 times. If the audio said "more than 4 times", I wouldn't complain. As it is, they are sensationalizing the information.
Then they have the text at the bottom of the screen: Study shows Democrats were investigated or indicted 6 times more than Republicans.
I hear what they're saying and it is compelling, but they sure are making those numbers lie.
Sheldon Whitehouse - Remember that name folks. He is one of the few in politics that I consider honest enough for a presidential election - I have not heard anything corrupt about him.
Martha Mitchel - What a mouth she had. In one of her screaming fits she wailed that she and John would die at the hands of the administration. She died shortly after that (cancer - which can be injected and is done to mice, rats, rabbits, etc so why not Martha) and he died a few months later.
DOJ - Oh, what a revolting development this is.
Gonzales & Mukasey - Dishonest rats.
Bush - Stupid, stupid, stupid.

liberalNmoderation @ 46:
I watched it again last week, and just saw something about another elect car (’Volt’ I think). I don’t know that many people, but a large percent of those I do know were and are interested in the product. DON”T TELL ME PEOPLE WERE NOT INTERESTED IN THEM (The leasers were all wanting to keep them and release them but they were all reposessed in order to shred the cars along with some other brand new cars. WHY?). See the movie. THEY WERE AND THEY STILL ARE INTERESTED. I am now a proud owner of a Toyota Prius. To hell with American made cars. I remember back in the 50s or 60s Dinah Shore singing “See the USA in your Chevrolet”. I can’t think of a tune “See the ??? in your Toyota”. Maybe “See us in our Prius”?
Why destroy a great product to replace it with another of the same? :(
