Ladies and gentleman the US Attorney General…
Light Applause sign….
“not every wrong, or even every violation of the law, is a crime….”

Not surprising. Laws apply to “other people” not Justice Dept. staffers…..
…and there is this:
Mukasey used his sharpest words yet to criticize the senior leaders who took part in or failed to stop illegal hiring practices during the tenure of his predecessor, Alberto Gonzales.
He used sharp words, so I’m sure those criminals in the DOJ are feeling pretty bad right now.
nothing like being scolded at the office to just ruin your day man.
total bummer
It’s part of the Paperwork Reduction Act–it saves the White House the effort to create, and for W to sign, those pardons.
Thank You Shumer and Finestein just good dem’s kissing bush’s ass
So. If I print out Mr. Mukasey’s statement there and show it to the next cop trying to give me a speeding ticket, do you think that might convince that cop?
Seriously — the Attorney General of the United States is making an argument that some lawlessness is just hunky dory.
“not every wrong, or even every violation of the law, is a crime….”
This seems like absolute nonsense to me. Isn’t every violation of law by definition a crime?
What did former U S Attorney Lynn Battaglia do for Senator Mikulski to get her appointment?
These are political appointments and politics may have something to do with selection and retention.
Angry Ari and friends have yet to point out what harm was done by dumping certain prosecutors? Were there any major cases disrupted or were the dumpees just doing a lousy job?
Art thinks breaking the law is okay provided it is broken by Republicans.
Were there any major cases disrupted or were the dumpees just doing a lousy job?
nope, nothing, not a one Art. Just asking people if they support abortion on a job interview. No biggee.
Just putting a governor in jail in an election season.
Just removing a AG from her position b/c she MAY have been a lesbian.
nope, nothing, not a one….
jas,
republicans don’t break laws though, so your answer doesn’t make sense to me.
