FBI

Today's headline in the Austin American-Statesman is "Director admits FBI misused Patriot Act."  When are the Republicans going to learn that when Democrats try to limit the administration, it is because the Republicans can be counted on to do bad things with their power?  Bush has so infiltrated the various departments of government with harmful kinds of directors, that it is true that we are going to have to clean house - every nook and cranny.  I can't wait.  We are absolutely correct in thinking that the unseemly powers granted to the government would result in harming the rest of us.  I'll bet you that they got not one terrorist with that power they were corrupting.  Mueller, the Director, has apologized for the lapses, but even the Republicans are still angry.  There will be hearings.  Here is a great quote, "When it comes to national security, slopppiness should be reserved for the hog lot, not the FBI", said Sen. Charles Grassley, of Iowa.                bjj
