Gonzales, Mueller Admit FBI Broke Law

    WASHINGTON — The nation's top two law enforcement officials acknowledged Friday the FBI broke the law to secretly pry out personal information about Americans. They apologized and vowed to prevent further illegal intrusions.

    Attorney General Alberto Gonzales left open the possibility of pursuing criminal charges against FBI agents or lawyers who improperly used the USA Patriot Act in pursuit of suspected terrorists and spies.

    The FBI's transgressions were spelled out in a damning 126-page audit by Justice Department Inspector General Glenn A. Fine. He found that agents sometimes demanded personal data on people without official authorization, and in other cases improperly obtained telephone records in non-emergency circumstances.

   So now I wonder who's head is going on the block for this illegal activity?  I do not think that an apology by the FBI and a promise to not let it happen again is going to work.

   I'd also bet that those hoods up in the White House fully backed the illegal snooping that the FBI was doing on the American citizens.

   I seriously wonder if there is any government security organization in the United States that is actually working by the law anymore sonce Bush and the boys came into office.

    Attorney General  Gonzales won't pursue any of the agents involved in this shit because that would more than likely cover much of the FBI group in charge of spying on the American's that they live with.

   Gonzales himself should be the first head to roll in the matter. Not to worry though because his day is coming more sooner than later I think.
