I hope that you are responding with humor, but, even if you are....you're an officer of the court....and you don't seem very concerned by any of this....
....I noticed your under reaction to the charges against Libby, and his trial.
Who do you admire....James Comey?....Patrick Fitzgerald?....Bradley Schlozman? ....William Rehnquist? .....Thurgood Marshall? ...... Ted Olson? ...... John Roberts ?
I'm just six years older than you are....and I have never seen anything that compares with what is happening in Washington, now. It makes Nixon's disregard for the law look trivial......

I-Team: Justice Attorneys
- Friday May 04, 2007 5:50 pm
ABC-7 NEWS I-TEAM INVESTIGATOR ROBERTA BASKIN IS HERE WITH THE EXCLUSIVE DETAILS�.ROBERTA?
Roberta Baskin on set: ONE OF THE TOP PRIORITIES OF THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT IS TO PROSECUTE VIOLATIONS OF OUR CIVIL RIGHTS. HOWEVER THE TEAM OF PROSECUTORS THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT HAS PUT TOGETHER LOOKS NOTHING LIKE THE AMERICA IT'S SUPPOSED TO PROTECT.
Story: Some of the most notorious crimes committed in America � police brutality..cross burnings..violence at abortion clinics..modern day slavery - all federal crimes - are prosecuted by The Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice.
But our investigation has found that the Justice Department is missing a key component in its mission to protect civil rights - DIVERSITY � diversity in the attorney ranks to prosecute cases.
Congressman John Conyers: "They need someone to investigate them."
The I-Team has learned that since 2003...the criminal section within the Civil Rights Division has not hired a single black attorney to replace those who have left. Not one.
(Graphic)
As a result, the current face of civil rights prosecutions looks like this: Out of fifty attorneys in the Criminal Section - only two are black. The same number the criminal section had in 1978 - even though the size of the staff has more than doubled....

If you think that I am over reacting to a president and vp, and now a DOJ, that seem more like enemies of the state, than defenders of it, do you believe that your reaction is "just about right"?
