Breaking: Justice dept report sez politics were **illegally** used in hiring prosecutors.
Just reported as breaking nooz on MSNBC. The crap we KNEW was illegal, has now been defined as illegal.

Illegal

That's the term they used.

Why do I get the feeling that, even in saying this, the administration people in charge over there are just laughing their asses off at us and thumbing their noses?

None of this is taken seriously by anyone anymore.

5. I expect to see a resolution by some puke
by next week making it retroactively legal. Like nixon said, "if the president does it it means that it is not illegal".

6. So voter suppression, jailing a governor, rigging elections, media ....
..... manipulation, paying off the press, caging lists, civil rights abuses,
doing the work of Jack Abramoff, spying on Americans, lying under oath,
protecting the President after he breaks the law, destruction of evidence,
and firing people if they don't hold phony trials is against the law?

Who knew ..... :rofl:
