10. Good let them go then

Jonathan Turley was just interviewed. He said he has been very concerned about this admionistration and the separation of powers for some time now.

This is just proof that Gonzales is an arrogant butt head.

11. This is a circus

The same Congress that didn't do shit about warrantless searches and that abrogated its oversight responsibilities to Bush's fledging dictatorship, is now splitting a gut over the search of Jefferson's office. What a bunch of cretins!

As to the torture rubber-stamper Gonzalez, he should be behind bars!

Political dispute over FBI raid nears showdown

Two senior administration officials said the showdown over the FBI's raid of Rep. William Jefferson's office last weekend had reached what one called "the tipping point," with threats of high-level resignations. Top Justice Department officials --Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, Deputy Attorney General Paul McNulty and FBI Director Robert Mueller --indicated they would resign if forced to give the seized materials back, the officials said.

The resignation threats were relayed to the White House midweek as President Bush came under fierce pressure from Republican House Speaker Dennis Hastert and other congressional leaders to return the materials. Some in the administration, led by the vice president's office, argued the FBI overreached and violated constitutional law.
