Investigate first, then grant immunity, then if she purgers herself, she can’t claim that the information came out when she was immune, because the facts will already be known.

Next.

This is a brillant move by the Bush administration to prevent the testimony of Goodling.

There is a lot to see here so I don’t know about “moving along.”

Investigate, investigate, investigate. Why don’t you dems try to do something that’s right for the country.

To which we say:

There is nothing better for the country than indicting your criminal masters. Pedophile.

Then the pedophile wants to know why we don’t do their job for them.

You know, things like helping to re-build the New Orleans or get on with the war effort in Iraq before you lose the war.

To which we say: Don’t worry pedophile, we will fix that for you too.

Oh, pul-leease, you blithering idiot. Your side has deliberately created enough disasters to last a lifetime, and cleaning up the mess BushCo has made of the Justice Department is one of them.

It is truly astonishing that CONS can wreck, mangle and mishandle every last thing they get their greasy hands on for years on end, and then have the gall to complain that others aren’t cleaning up after them quick enough.

Now you scamper off home, Li’l Buddy. Mother Rove is calling. She’ll help you change your wet ones, make you a nice mug of cocoa, and tuck you into bed.

I don’t know how serious the improper hiring practices charge can be, but if they’ve already begun investigating that, she probably can’t be immune to prosecution on it when she testifies before Congress.

Investigate, investigate, investigate. Why don’t you dems try to do something that’s right for the country.

You’re funny.

As slow as this is going I don’t see much getting done..Same with all these investigation’s…..The Impeachiness is way to slow for my liking..

There’s not really much they can do to speed things up. There are still too many Republicans in Congress to get an impeachment going. The only thing that will help it along will be public opinion and Republicans reading the writing on the wall about their own re-election chances. And the thing that will drive public opinion is seeing the administration repeatedly caught in corrupt activities and repeatedly getting caught lying about it. That’s what these hearings will accomplish. But, they might also knock a few obstructions out of the way.

Gonzales is a major problem for Bush. Nobody thinks Gonzales should stay. Every week it becomes more evident, but Bush can’t get rid of him, because he’ll have to replace him with someone who can make it through Senate confirmation hearings. And that would be someone who wouldn’t block investigations as Gonzales is willing to do.

let’s see, her boss is investigating her for doing something he told her to do.

It’s not her boss. It’s the OIG (Inspector General) and OPR (Office of Professional Responsibility). They’re the ones, if you recall, who were denied security clearances by Bush himself when they were trying to investigate Gonzales on the NSA wiretaps. They had to wrap up the investigation because they couldn’t go any further, and the Dems hadn’t taken back Congress, yet.

What I want to know is who initiated this investigation, and to what degree are they tied to main Justice.

The probe began “after Jeff Taylor, the interim U.S. attorney in D.C., complained that Goodling tried to block the hiring of a prosecutor in his office for being a ‘liberal Democratic type.’”

It seems more likely than not that this investigation will somehow be botched.

The judiciary committee should push hard for a special prosecutor to investigate Goodling. Gonzales’ conflict of interest is off the charts here.

I hate to see them delay her congressional testimony, but this is the DoJ’s Inspector General, Glenn Fine, who’s investigating and he doesn’t seem to have been doing the administration’s bidding at any point up to now.

all pretty funny when your friend is the prosecutor. whaddya bet no charges are filed?

That would be your first mistake, right there.
