Wow, somebody get Bill O'Liellys' body language expert on the fon....
If you were watching Robert Mueller, FBI Directors' press conference, you know exactly what I'm saying... he shifted, barely looked at the camera and obviously had a horrible case of dry mouth. Hmmmm..


CNN

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The FBI is guilty of "serious misuse" of the power to secretly obtain private information under the Patriot Act, a government audit said Friday.

The Justice Department's inspector general looked at the FBI's use of national security letters (NSLs), in which agents demand personal and business information about individuals -- such as financial, phone, and Internet records -- without court orders. Civil libertarians have slammed the practice.

Yes Mueller was definitely on the hot seat - seems like the Administration and it's flunkies are backpeddling so fast their wheels are still falling off.

What with Abu gonzales deciding he won't oppose removing that trustly little phrase in the Patriot Act they used to dump all those pesky prosecutors that didn't toe the PIG line.

Abu Gonzales is a traitor to this country - he seems to fit right in. Gotta love people who write laws to persecute their own citizens.
