RE: Murky Murkasey Chief of Official Government Corruption

Bush's Next Attorney Genereal Nomination: Murky Michael B. Murkasey Chief of the Official Corruption Unit of the Attorney General's office and likely Yale Bones Club Satan worshiper who gave billions of dollars to the people who blew up the World Trade Center.

To his discredit, Mukasey won the approval of Congress when he apparently condemned the use of torture by U.S. forces. He also stated that he knows no lawful right of a President to authorize torture. However in a following interview Senator Sheldon Whitehouse asked Murkasey whether waterboarding was constitutional Murkasey replied: “I don’t know what is involved in the technique, If waterboarding is torture, torture is not constitutional.” Clearly Murkasey is a liar. There is categorically no way a nominee for Attorney General replacing a fired an Attorney General who was fired for approving waterboarding would not know what is involved in the technique.
