Since when does the FBI interpret law?

And in that world of black and white, it also proves that the United States government was the primary supporter of the IRA.

And in fact WAS the IRA.

They certainly enforce it.

Related to rendition.

It will be interesting to see what Obama and Holder do with a new DOJ internal report that concludes that DoJ attorneys may have "deliberately slanted their legal advice to provide the White House with the conclusions it wanted to justify torture."

A Torture Report Could Spell Big Trouble For Bush Lawyers

I will be the first to criticize Obama if he lets it slide.

I put money on it that nothing happens. Maybe a few uber-libs in Congress will use it to divert attention from the pork in the latest Stimulus Bill, but other than that, nada. Obama is going to protect his right to do what ever he wants and he moves power into the executive branch like nothing Bush ever did or has been seen since the days of FDR. It will just be used as a distraction.

I guess we shall see.

But if the conclusions of Bush's own DoJ -OPR report are correct, as reported, it is certainly more serious than something to divert attention. It it at the heart of Bush's torture policy.

I dont expect you to agree with that.

No, I would agree with you on that point. Absolute proof will be difficult.

And on top of that every administration will get info fed to it that others think it wants to hear, regardless of what Obama or any of his lacky's tell the public.

***standing back to avoid the lightening strike*** ;)

taking back the lightening strike after I saw past...."I agree with you"

The Bush DoJ has been the most political and unethical in our lifetime. The DoJ is the one department that is supposed to be above politicization.

I dont expect any future president to sink to that level.

Eh, I don't believe that. There have been numerous shady governments in the US before Bush came along.

IMO, the worst politicization of the DoJ in our lifetime.

Repeat.....I have to laugh at the way you guys keep finding a way to excuse the actions of the Bush administration.

How is that? All I did was refer back to the thread you linked to. I have to laugh at the way you have a selective memory when it comes to corruption in Government immediately before and long before Bush.

But that's not what we're talking about, here.

The legislature makes the laws, the FBI goes out and catches the bad guys as defined by those laws, and the judiciary interprets the law as it applies to the case in question.

This is not a difficult concept.
