The Senate bill passed several weeks ago to overturn the provision in the Patriot Act inserted at the request of the DoJ and by the Repub conference committtee (Dems were excluded) on the process of appointing interim attorneys is not historic, but a positive outcome.

I am also still waiting for an answer to the "common sense fundamental question" of why Gonazales felt the investigation of William Jefferson was more "unique" than the investigations of Cunningham and Ney that he would authorize raiding a Congressional office for the first time in the history of Congress.
