THANKS MUCH! (We have to share the toobes, so I just returned & saw your comment ;->)

I know Sen. Hillary Clinton is an attorney, but I don’t believe she’s ever been a prosecutor. Has any of the other candidates ever been a prosecutor?

I have reached the conclusion that we need a Democratic Party president in the White House come January 2009, and not just any Democratic Party president, but one with prosecutorial credentials.

Why?

To prosecute war crime charges against members of the outgoing Bush administration, as well as prosecute crimes committed against our Constitution and our democracy.

A Democratic Party president would also cleanup the Justice Department of some of the more un-American, anti-democracy elements, and replace them with patriotic, “rule of law” people, in a non-partisan manner.

At least that’s my hope.

And from looking at the Republican Party’s presidential candidates, if any of them win, all we would have in 2009 is a Bush clone in the White House, who would continue the same nefarious, anti-democracy, un-American policies.

Thus, my conclusion we need prosecutorial Democrats in the White House, starting in 2009, who will stem the bleeding of Uncle Sam and the shredding of our Constitution, who will conduct thorough in-house White House investigations of the most corrupt and evil outgoing administration in American history.

Will Hillary Clinton do it if elected president? Will Barack Obama? Will John Edwards? Will any of the Democratic candidates do what is necessary if elected president?

I believe we should at least give one of them a chance, but it would help if any of them have had prior prosecutorial experience.

From President Bush’s Memorial Day speech…

“I respect my good friends decision to step down, in the interest of calming this controversy and allowing the Justice Dept. to get back to the essential duties it is tasked with. And to ensure the Department is able to get right back to work, I have chosen someone with Justice Dept experience, someone I know and trust to protect Americans. I would like to introduce your new Attorney General, John Yoo.”

Yoo could NOT be confirmed and I have to believe that Harry and Nancy have learned SOME lessons including no recesses. Someone(s) fairly junior may have to stay in town over traditional recessperiods in order to go into session and then adjourn, but NO RECESS FOR YOU CONGRESS!

that will be almost impossible for democrats to defy

If the AG steps down, who would the prez most likely replace this man with?

It’s unclear.

There are rumors that Orrin Hatch would take the job. Hopefully, that won’t happen, because it would only make things worse.

Of course, with Hatch they lose a Senate seat. Really doubt that Rove would risk making Lieberman “irrelevant”.

If the AG steps down, who would the prez most likely replace this man with?

Pepperdine Law School Professor Doug Kmiec
Duke Law School Professor Erwin Chemerinsky
Georgetown Law Center Professor Randy Barnett
Legal Counsel/Judicial Confirmation Network Wendy Long.
Chapman Law School Professor John Eastman

and let’s not forget Borkemada his own self – just as a typical Admin f-u to congress

Uberhauptfuhrer John Woo?
