justice is suppose to be blind...the wh keeps saying nothing improper or illegal was done in the firings of the 8 us attorneys but if the ag wasnt the one who decided who was to be fired for not being a "bushie" and the pres wasnt the one that decided,as the new wh spokesperson said today at the news conference,doesnt that leave us with carl rove/sampson making the descions for the justice department?who the heck elected them and who in their right mind would argue that ANYTHING carl rove has his hand in isnt political?

After six plus year of Bush and his buddy Rove and 12 years of a Republican Congress that did nothing but pursue a political agenda, the American public has a right to be skeptical and cynical to the core.
Unlike the lies the Bushies are spewing, Congress does have the right and duty of oversight and investigation if there is evidence of illegal activity or corruption.
This attitude of "we are the executives and we can do whatever we want regardless of it being illegal or unconstitutional" has got to go!!!!
