Just add it to the pile, Ma'am...

A request to investigate an apparent political manipulation of a prosecutor, by Guam's representative.

Heavens! Political motivation in protecting one of the Republican party's best money whores? By THIS Administration? Say it isn't so!

Whatever will we tell the children?

Oh yeah, we'll tell them to QUIT PLAYING THOSE DARN VIDEO GAMES.

Sadly, and cynically, the Republicans have methodically removed all independent authority for investigating these types of crimes, and now this request will go first to...

James Sensenbrenner!!

[sarcasm] Oh, HE“LL authorize an inquiry, right away. I mean, just because he refused to allow Democratic testimony in the last investigation is no reason to believe he'll be anything but fair now, right? And I'm SURE he doesn't have any ties to Abramoff...[/sarcasm]

It's so sad that a despicable, transparent weasel like Abramoff, who has connived with the Republican majority to commercial our governing bodies, will be able to expect this kind of deference from the ruling elites. As Berke Breathed said many years ago, the great principle upon which this country operates is... Money Talks! Money Talks! Money Talks!!!
