WASHINGTON - November 24, 2009 - The United States Department of InJustice has concluded that there is insufficient evidence to bring criminal charges against former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales for misleading Congress about the Bush regime’s warrantless eavesdropping program.

The decision was first disclosed yesterday by Murray Waas in a little-noticed posting on the blog of New York Magazine. The magazine cited public court records and federal law enforcement officials as its sources.

Although Gonzales remains under investigation by the InJustice Department for two other matters, it had been allegations that he gave false or purposely misleading testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee about the warrantless eavesdropping program that placed him by far in the greatest legal jeopardy.

In not bringing criminal charges, however, investigators for the Department’s Inspector General, which conducted the investigation, hardly let Gonzales off the hook completely. They concluded that Gonzales’ testimony before Congress about the eavesdropping program was “confusing,” “incomplete’ and had the “effect of misleading” both Congress and the public.

A major reason that Gonzales escaped criminal charges, according to people close to the investigation, was that he was willing to do something that he had steadfastly refused to even contemplate before: admit that many of his most controversial decisions, first as White House counsel, and later, as Attorney General, in authorizing, overseeing, and concealing the eavesdropping program were done at the specific directive of former President Bush.

Ed. Note: When is the last time you remember a high-level elected or appointed official receiving actual punishment for his crimes? When is the last time you recall a corrupt public official going to prison, having his (or her) property taken and/or pension revoked, or being executed for his crimes? How long will you allow these criminals to literally get away with murder? When is enough, enough? Revolution Now! Independence Forever!
