They never learn ...

The US Congressional Democrats do NOT learn. (Or they are secretly in sympathy with BushCo's destruction of our democracy and are playing an underhanded game.)

Several Democratic lawmakers praised Bolten this week for helping to find pragmatic outsider Michael Mukasey to replace Bush's longtime inner-circle friend Alberto Gonzales as attorney general — and thus avoiding the fierce Senate confirmation fight that was expected if Bush had chosen another loyalist or ideologue.

Here they are being set up again. But they are happy. Somehow Michael Mukasey has been defined as NOT a loyalist or ideologue. Voilà, he's the perfect man to run the US Attorney General's Office.

'Non loyalist and non ideologue' Michael Mukasey ruled that an American citizen can be detained indefinitely without charges.

And there's that minuscule issue that no one, and I repeat no one, with any integrity will work for George W. Bush. If they have a shred of integrity the Bush mafia will ruin them.

But Dems are happy for now and that's all that matters. Doing their jobs would be stressful and it must be more pleasant to be approved of by Faux Noise than by the voters.
