The one thing Bush could do before he leaves office is to pardon the border agents.

The court is awaiting a U.S. Court of Appeals ruling on an appeal by Jefferson's lawyers to throw out most of the 16 charges against him. How can this crap go on while Jefferson's aide admitted to complicity in what Jefferson did, pled guilty, was convicted, and is serving time for everything that this scumbag denies doing while having stashed $90K in cold-cash bribe money in his freezer. Who are the scumbag's low-life lawyers and who is paying them?

Aren't you being a tad anal here? The original headline was:
"Off The Hook: No Criminal Charges For Spitzer"
All of which was contained in his post's headline. His only mistake was to not include parenthesis, around the added verbage. A reasonable person would CUT HIM A LITTLE SLACK.

No kidding!
He says on his profile page “Somehow, I always post something that gets my butt tossed.”
While this doesn’t rise to *that* level, I can see how that might come about.

And the GOP should be shining a light on this trend so the sheeple can begin to see - one sheep at a time - the many injustices that are going on.

Nobody ever got to the bottom of NYS’s Troopergate scandal, either. So what if ‘Rat state pols are using members of the NYS Troopers as their own personal goon squad.

Obama will fire the U.S. attorneys, put his people in, and the charges against Jefferson will go away.
On Spitzer, I agree with Garcia’s decision if there were no public funds used.
I’d like to see John Edward’s misappropriation of campaign funds be investigated.

He’ll be fired in January. He was appointed by Bush.

To: WoofDog123
Possibly Bingo there. You may be onto something. Here is a possible reason. Spitzer was a superdelegate and the superdelegates had been considering going with Hillary over Obama at the time the Spitzer scandal broke. The timing of the Spitzer scandal's emergence looked non-conincidental.
Now as you point out the timing of the non-prosecution announcement also looks non-coincidental.
Originally had wondered whether it was showing that Hillary would blackmail superdelegates with FBI files.
Could this scandal's emergence and the tossing of prosecution however have been actually arranged somehow by backers of Obama? Wouldn't have thought it. The timing of the emergence and the announcement of no prosecution however certainly both appear to be non-coincidental. I don't know enough to know the reason behind these apparent non-coincidences though. Looks suspicious and probably is.
To: TheEaglehasLanded
Also we must remember that Spitzer had been prosecuting AIG. Now AIG has been given a government bailout.
AIG goes from a firm being prosecuted to a firm borrowing millions from the government and getting a special deal.
Spitzer went up against the international bankers.
One thing for sure is that there was a special investigation of Spitzer going on.
If one could find out how that was arranged for and directed that might lead one closer to answering the question of what was the motive for the person or people who wanted to bring down Spitzer.

Hey Spitz. You didn't disappoint me, Glad your gone. But your replacement is just like you. Stealing public money, running with whores. You must wonder where is the justice for some people.

To: WoofDog123
Don't believe in coincidence. See my prior two posts here on this thread. You have made a great observation here pointing out a possible and probable non-coincidence.
Despite my earlier suspicion regarding the timing of the emergence of the scandal, I had completely missed out on drawing a conclusion regarding the timing of the no prosecution announcement here.
