Artur Davis, Rep Alabama, would be my choice over those I’ve read about. I’ve watched him on the House Judiciary Committee hearings. Remember when he took on Addington? He has the intelligence, foundation in law, and the guts to confront the issues and the lawbreakers. I believe he could clean up DOJ (if anyone can!).

He was the first congressman to endorse Obama outside of Il.

I don’t live in Alabama. I’m white.

I like Elliot Spizer, the ex-NY Gov. He scared the Corporations so bad they had to drag him down with his “off duty” sexcapades.

His choice of a spouse is relevant for this position how?

I agree the Mitchell report was a sham to protect Selig and the owners. Per Hugh and others, George’s been “out of the game” for too long. I would see him as a really weak nomination at a time we really need someone vigorous.

OT, agree, that in the context of the Bush administration, Comey showed some spine, but imh unlawyered opinion, Dems could do a lot better.

89 players were named in Mitchell’s report. So using Mitchell’s report of only or mostly just Roger Clemens to make your case that the report was less than abysmal is quite an incomplete take on the full report and the validity of it or lack thereof.

To be kind of brief - you are saying Clemens is belivable enough to think his trainer is a liar and the DNA evidence is from B12 shots.

Also that ”investigation” is the same as a ”trial”. So if JFK is 94 percent thought to be assasinated by conspiracy then the evidence and conclusion need not be presented.

You say yourself you think he juiced. Protections exist but so does reality. Clemens is not in jail though the ”investigation” found Roger ”guilty”.

You think you can convict everyone who is guility? Some have lesser (read minimal) punishment like pardon or investigation. Congress has (to) many lawyers but they are not a court,Not to divide or give a gut argument but is enough evidence to say that fucker bin laden planned” the attacks? Or that ”real ira” murdered at Omagh? That does not mean the us gov can’t release statements and findings from investigations.

It works on both sides of the coin as well with false evidence that quakers were ”a threat” to us gov for being anti-war.

Talkig about system and deeming GM a liar… What of Holder and his Rich pardon. Or Abu Gonxalves of his crimes - oops I have zero courts or investigations to establish a crime.

Is Bush a criminal as is told everyday?

I will say false prosecution as you outline is a problem of a farce, but we are light years away from even due process and investigation is not procecution especially when the target already made their money, ate their steak, took their gold trophy, and swindled their extensive mating.

How is Clemens aaying there is no evidence evidence? Ohhh boo hoo he ”thought” it was B12 that juoced him to it?

Where is you evidence of torture at gitmo… Sone people said it?

You saying Motchell was a liar and made up evidence? Based on what - maybe you read it and said so?

I am sure the trainer saved B12 needles and lied along with Petite + Canseco + Clemens (and MacGwuires body).

He is a god darn cheat.he can lie to his k-son’s but he don’t lie to me even if I listened to 1000 innings of his pitching.

How about the Mitchell report on JFK, where is fact and where is fiction?

As for ”outing prominant people”… Umm that is the whole point.

No, “the whole point” would be to prove that they were guilty. Outing and using possibly innocent people with a lot of laughably non-credible evidence to bolster one’s status or for any other reason is shameful and disgraceful.

That junk isn’t worth spit as evidence. Nothing.

Yeah, Petite lied but Roger is the statue of Liberty.

As for ”outing prominant people”… Umm that is the whole point. Why should MERIT be ganked and truth, position, wealth, and power be stolen?
