No one, including Hon. Michael Mukasey, should even be considered for the vacant AG post until they answer one question, posed under oath:
As attorney general, will you enforce the law; specifically, George Bush's admitted violations of Title 50 US Code, Chapter 36, Subchapter 1, Section 1800 et seq., i.e., the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978, which makes any warrantless wiretap a felony punishable by up to 5 years in prison and a $10,000.00 fine? For each wiretap. 1,000 wiretaps = 5,000 years in prison and a $10,000,000.00 fine.
Yes or no?
