In All Her Purse Lipped Rage

Michelle Malkin will always find a way to call Obama administration officials "terrorist sympathizers".



I'm reminded of a comment made by Keith Olbermann the other night, about the thousands of DOJ attorneys that haven't represented a "terrorist" from Guantanamo. Malkin, as well as others, would have us believe that EVERYONE at the DOJ has nothing but utter contempt for the safety of the American people.

But here's something that she should realize - the "terrorists" captured and housed at Guantanamo would have representation whether they were to be tired in civilian court or the tribunal system. It's part of the due process system that her and other conservatives claim to champion. Well, they champion it when it serves their own bitter interests.

And This Guy Is The Attorney General Of The US?

Let's start this one off with a quick definition:

Crime -

–noun 1. an action or an instance of negligence that is deemed injurious to the public welfare or morals or to the interests of the state and that is legally prohibited.
2. criminal activity and those engaged in it: to fight crime.
3. the habitual or frequent commission of crimes: a life of crime.
4. any offense, serious wrongdoing, or sin.
5. a foolish, senseless, or shameful act: It's a crime to let that beautiful garden go to ruin.

When Micheal Mukasy addressed the American Bar Association regarding the politicization of the Department of Justice, he said he wouldn't prosecute them for any wrong-doing, because not every crime is a "crime":

Attorney General Michael Mukasey said Tuesday that the Department of Justice would not pursue criminal charges against former employees implicated in an internal investigation on politicized hiring practices.

“Where there is evidence of criminal wrongdoing, we vigorously investigate it,” Mukasey said in a speech at the American Bar Association. “And where there is enough evidence to charge someone with a crime, we vigorously prosecute. But not every wrong, or even every violation of the law, is a crime.”

More here.

There's so much that can be read into this, but it's widely apparent what Mukasey means. He doesn't care because this was done for the party that he represents, he's doing what he is told - bottom-line.

However, I'm seriously considering citing this statement the next time I'm pulled-over for speeding.
