Who is the “Justice” Department investigating?
Jan 2, 2006
The U.S. Justice Department announced it is opening a “criminal investigation” into media reports about the President’s domestic spying.
So what’s it looking for? For the politicians who have been taking rights away from people in this country? Is it tracking down those who have committed torture? Inquiring into people being kidnapped and held incommunicado without charges? Or investigating the violation of people’s supposed Fourth Amendment right “to be secure in their houses?”
No, the so-called “Justice” Department is looking to see who put the dime on the President for spying on people inside this country without a warrant.
It seems they have a sense of priorities – if their intention was to install Bush as dictator!
