Apparently, the Bush administration is willing to cover up treason and corruption at the highest levels of the previous administration in order to keep the tool of "deliberative process" so that it, too, can use the Justice Department for political purposes.
Sometimes movin' on means keepin' on with the same old tricks.
Plus, it wouldn't be wise to embarrass the Attorney General whose decisions are in question in this matter when she's running to take the job of the President's brother, would it ?

"Plus, it wouldn't be wise to embarrass the Attorney General whose decisions are in question in this matter when she's running to take the job of the President's brother, would it ?" Could it be that Reno is running in order to shield herself...???

Perhaps if they didn't do this, Janet Reno would say it was because she was running against his brother? The media would join in that chorus, I can see it all now. Good grief, the media is already carrying water for Janet! Renos' campaign, helping her out by reminding voters of all the reasons they should be angry at Jeb Bush.

One of the saddest things I have had to witness was not the criminality by Clinton and company for a group like them was bound to come along eventually, it was the lack of repudiation, prosecution and incarceration for the major players. We were sold out by our own boys. Nothing could be clearer than watching Bush join the cover-up.
Remember when the Republicans wouldn't execute a full prosectuion in the Senate? Welcome to reality folks.

Thanks for an interesting post, kristinn. I thought Middleton somehow fell through the cracks. This will be an interesting 15 months.

I'm curious what you have to say about this news?

"Apparently, the Bush administration is willing to cover up treason and corruption at the highest levels of the previous administration in order to keep the tool of "deliberative process" so that it, too, can use the Justice Department for political purposes."That's a pretty strong conclusion from such incomplete information.
Do you still work for Judicial Watch?

Another Middleton scandal was his connections to fugitive Clinton donor
Mark Jimenez.
According to the House Committee on Government Reform -
"Mark Middleton is connected to at least three major figures in the campaign finance scandal who have been indicted: John Huang, Charlie Trie and Mark Jimenez," Burton said. "His lawyers have informed us that Mr. Middleton plans to plead the 5th before our committee, while at the same time claiming that he has nothing to hide. I can only hope that Mr. Middleton will change his mind, particularly since we have an opinion from the Congressional Research Service stating that, under the circumstances, they believe he has waived his 5th amendment privileges and must testify." [snip]
Mark Jimenez, a client of Middletons, contributed over $806,000 to the DNC, Clinton/Gore, and other entities related to the Democratic party or President Clinton. Middleton arranged for Jimenez to attend a White House coffee with the President on February 6, 1996. Jimenez has been indicted for organizing, making and concealing illegal conduit contributions to the Clinton/Gore campaign. Jimenez fled to the Philippines and the Justice Department has requested that Jimenez be extradited.
The extradition proceedings against Jimenez are continuing in the Philippines.
According to press reports from the Philippines a couple of weeks ago, Jimenez has hired Kenneth Starr to act as his U.S. lawyer. Starr is apparently trying to block Jimenez's extradition back to the U.S. to answer for his crimes, or to arrange a plea bargain for Jimenez with the U.S. Department of Justice.
Jimenez managed to get elected as a legislator in the Philippines recently - running under the name "Mario Crespo" - and is claiming immunity from extradition on that basis.
Jimenez is ranked as the wealthiest member of the Philippines legislature.

You anti-Bush gaggle just can't get anything right when it comes to any action by the Bush Administration. Has it ever occured to you that KEEPING documents AWAY from Clinton holdovers, and other democrat operatives is the BEST thing to do until those who REALLY might do something about it can act on it?
To: kristinn
Look.....this is simple. The Clinton's have the goods on the Bushes. And visa versa. In fact I'm sure their relationship is based on the concept of mutual assured destruction. So you will watch the Bushes protect the Clintons...and when the Clintons are back in office, they will protect the Bushes. It is a truly incestuous relationship.

As O'Reilly says, "The powerful, protect the powerful." Truer words have yet to be spoken.

Perhaps he wants her to run and then at a strategic time give in to the request for info to embarrass her and help his brother win. Once the info is out it will lose its potency.

ALOHA RONNIE, Mudboy Slim, goldilucky, backhoe, Snow Bunny, Kathleen, Ragtime Cowgirl and abigail2, if you haven't already, sadly mull over this
right on the mark statement by kristinn:
"Apparently, the Bush administration is willing to cover up treason and corruption at the highest levels of the previous administration
in order to keep the tool of "deliberative process" so that it, too, can use the Justice Department for political purposes."
