A classified Justice Department investigation has concluded that a former F.B.I. translator at the center of a growing controversy was dismissed in part because she accused the bureau of ineptitude, and it found that the F.B.I. did not aggressively investigate her claims of espionage against a co-worker.
The Justice Department's inspector general concluded that the allegations by the translator, Sibel Edmonds, "were at least a contributing factor in why the F.B.I. terminated her services," and the F.B.I. is considering disciplinary action against some employees as a result, Robert S. Mueller III, director of the bureau, said in a letter last week to lawmakers. A copy of the letter was obtained by The New York Times.
The investigation of Ms. Edmonds follows the classic 1600 Crew behavior pattern: when caught lying, deny everything and then classify the evidence, even if it's already been released to the public.
Hope NEEDS to be on the way...the police state of a second 1600 Crew term will open the gulags and the soulless factories of a truly Christo-Corpo-Fascist state.

Regarding the "Hope is on the Way" slogan, I don't like it. Hope is already here. The slogan is meaningless anyway. "Help is on the Way" would be more logical.
But yeah, they do that sort of thing up there in the land of Bushista, where pretzels are now on the airport watchlist for being anti-Bush and a lie isn't a lie if a Republican tells it, but the truth isn't the truth is a Democrat says it.
How was it Superman used to get rid of the Superman from the Bizarro world again? Can we do that with the Bushistas?
