Does the FBI and the federal prosecutors behind the investigation of Mr. Tamm have a position on these issues, or are they supposed to do what they are told?
The reason I ask is the FBI seems to be one of the main instruments of oppression in this country. case in point, Mr. Tamm. However, there is a large number of people interested in a number of other issues where the FBI comes in and confiscates evidence, for instance, never to have the stuff see the light of day again.
In a new Obama administration will we have a chance to correct these crimes against justice? Will the FBI come clean about what they've done to enable the Bush administration and members of Congress both Democrat and Republican break the law and to, as you have argued, undermine the rule of law?
So, when an agent or some middle level officer of the FBI or some other security related agency is on the trail of some bad guy, and his or her commanders tell them to back off, so that thereafter the bad guy gets to do his crimes, are we going to see those commanders investigated?
That is one if the changes I'm hoping for.
