Let’s see, now. If Attorney General Michael Mukasey refuses to investigate CIA torture because government lawyers had approved those practices as being legal, doesn’t it then follow that he — actually, someone else — should investigate the lawyers? That’s what Harvey Silverglate proposes at ThePhoenix.com.

    The legal opinions that authorized torture are a significant weak point in the White House of cards. We have a newly- seated AG primarily focused on watching his backside on this issue. How are things going at the Justice Dept.? I recall stories about high-level positions being vacated under Gonzales. Have any jobs been filled? Is the department functional?— Larz

    Why doesn’t the government spend a lot more time legislating and a lot less time investigating. Most of the “investigating” merely involves the holier-than-thou Democrats trying the discredit Republicans. Get over it!

    Don: “Young Americans,” by David Bowie. Methesheeple is one of the very few people here whom I know personally. No troll.

    I was just commiserating with myself that I couldn’t communicate with him directly.Don’t know the song, because I’m an old coot, and it’s not my kind of music. Or maybe it is; I do like other classic rock. But all I remember are the lyrics “Ground Control to Major Tom.” I once tried to name a thoroughbred both GC and MT, but the Jockey Club said no.
