In fact Hastert's critics here are actually slamming Gonzalez because the Justice Department agrees privileged documents were searched!

I am not criticizing Gonzales because of anything to do with the case that is the topic of this thread. I was responding to the general claim that he is a principled law enforcement officer. He is not. He ignores or enforces the law selectively.

Gonzales systematically ignores tax evasion, document fraud, unlawful flight to avoid prosecution, racketeering, and smuggling, even conspiracy to abet acts of terrorism...

...whenever it involves illegal immigration.

He is unprincipled. QED.

"I am not criticizing Gonzales because of anything to do with the case that is the topic of this thread. "

I should have said "many of Hastert's critics".

My apologies to you and to any others I may have misrepresented.
