This came down the wire a couple hours ago and I'm surprised to be the first on Daily Kos to mention: Mukasey's taking a pass on Monica Goodling's & friends' hiring practices at Justice.
She's free to go.
All of the partisan hacks that she jammed into justice will get to keep their jobs.. I guess nothing wrong ever happened.
And of course the election is so close that Congress won't really be able to call Mukasey to task on this.
I had hopes that he would rise above the bickering and do some prosecutions where it was warranted. It turns out he was a ringer after all. I should have known it with a Bush appointee.
I guess we're all just fools for buying into it. The joke's on us.
