A big, bold, very serious McClatchy headline

Experts: Fixing Justice should be on Bush's agenda

it is to laugh... one of the most thankless jobs, as well as the one with the all-time worst record for achieving any results whatsoever, is offering advice to the bush administration... if bush had wanted a FUNCTIONAL - by any NORMAL definition of the term - department of justice, he wouldn't have appointed gonzo... therefore, you have to ask yourself, what IS bush's definition of "functional..." i propose that it looks very much like the doj looks right now... advising him to "fix" something he doesn't consider "broken" is an exercise in abject futility...
