AP:
The Senate confirmed retired judge Michael Mukasey as attorney general Thursday night to replace Alberto Gonzales, who was forced from office in a scandal over his handling of the Justice Department.
Mukasey was confirmed as the nation's 81st attorney general after a sharp debate over his refusal to say whether the waterboarding interrogation technique is torture.

Shocking.
A line has been crossed..n
War criminals the whole lot of them.
Shameful. Why do we have a Congress? What is the difference between Democrats and Republicans? Does the Consitution and international law matter? Torture is living under the Bush regime.
Dems setting it all up for Rudy and his Zionist wife & AIPAC backing him.... just like AIPAC backs Mukasey.
THANKS, DIANNE FEINSTEIN! (Diane Lyin-stein)
THANKS, CHUCK SCHUMER! (Fuck Schumer)
THANKS, MARY LANDRIEU! (Total Bitch from LA)
INTERESTING FACT: Mary Landrieu and others also voted WITH REPUBLICANS to allow George Bush to renew the Patriot Act, and on all sorts of other bullshit. They are not real Democrats, they are liars, wolves in sheeps clothing.
*** CALL YOUR SENATORS AND BITCH! ***
Thank you Senators Feinstein and Schumer! What a wonderful gift to humanity you've presented us all with!
Here's a song for u all -- sung to the tune of John Mellencamp's "Jack and Diane":
Little diddy, about Chuck and Diane,
2 American pols whoring in the heartland.
Chucky yearns to be a Carlyle Group star,
Diane's a duplicitous twat with morals on par.
Suckin' on corporate cash like bloodthirsty fleas,
Diane got Chucky's back, coordinating their sleaze.
Chucky say, "Hey Diane, let's thwart the people's plea",
Give Bush's hack Mukasey a pass, and let them do as they please.
Say uh, oh yeah torture goes on,
Long after the thrill of interrogatin' is gone.
Say uh, oh yeah torture goes on,
Long after the thrill of interrogatin' is gone. They waterboard on.
Chucky sits back, claims his decision's a torment,
Diane pats his head and pretends she knows what he means.
Well then there Diane, we oughtta run off to join the GOP.
Diane says "Baby, you right, we ain't Dems like they think"
Chucky say uh,
Oh yeah torture goes on,
Long after the thrill of interrogatin' is gone.
Oh yeah torture goes on,
Long after the thrill of interrogatin' is gone. They waterboard on.
Gonna let Bush torture, let them roll,
Let the bible belt, come and save our souls.
Holdin on to our Senate seats as long as we can,
Till changes come around real soon, make us human again.
Oh yeah torture goes on,
Long after the thrill of interrogatin' is gone
Oh yeah torture goes on,
Long after the thrill of interrogatin' is gone. They waterboard on.
Little diddy, about Chuck and Diane;
Two American traitors doin' the worst that they can.
Mukasey: I do solemnly swear not to indict George W. Bush on any charges resulting from any impeachment proceedings.
Democrats Suck Big Time. Cowards All Of Them.
Yipee!
I just came here to get a laugh out of all the whining.

I'm sorry, but the Presidential candidates voicing their opposition is not good enough-they need to be in Washington and VOTE, DAMMIT!
That this man was even considered for Attorney General is shameful, that he was confirmed is criminal.
Uh, reminds me of someone, who is it..??..da
'SEE' NO EVIL!

maybe Feinstein is right: if they didn't confirm Mukasey, we'd be looking at an interim appointment of another flat-out Bush crony. at least this way Congress has a chance at oversight.
political revenge is less important than fixing this mess.
Shit!
All you need is some red, white and black banners in the background.
Well, thats that. Now all I can do is pray the does the right thing. Sooner or later somebody has too.
