Obama Uses Ashcroft Supreme Court Case to Advance White House
The U.S. Department of Justice under President Barack Obama is helping defend former Attorney General John Ashcroft against a lawsuit that claims the Bush administration official should be held liable for misusing the law during the post-Sept. 11 hysteria. In taking Ashcroft’s side, the Obama administration appears to be hoping to shield its own officials from legal assaults for controversial decisions. What is disturbing about the Obama position is that the Justice Department is not arguing that what Ashcroft did was legal, but rather that, as Attorney General, his actions should be immune from prosecution.
TG: I keep telling you all that Bush & Obama are on the SAME SIDE! Most Democrats and Republicans are. So when you vote for that lesser-evil, neocon, fraud - you are really voting for the things Obama stands for.
