Extract

* Cheney's secretive Energy Task Force was investigated by the GAO and
the case is currently pending at the Supreme Court.

* The Plame Game is under investigation by the Justice Department.

* Bush's Medicare scam and the circumstances that led the administration
to lie to Congress about the cost of the legislation is under
investigation by the HHS inspector general's office.

* The massive intelligence failure that led Bush to lie to the world
about the Iraqi threat is under investigation by a
congressionally-authorized independent commission (which Bush fought the
creation of).

* Bribes offered on the House floor to Rep. Nick Smith (R-Mich.) in
exchange for his vote on Bush's Medicare plan are under investigation by
the House Ethics Committee and the Justice Department.

* Attorney General John Ashcroft was under investigation by the Federal
Election Commission for violating campaign finance laws in 2000, and the
FEC concluded that Ashcroft accepted $110,000 in illegal contributions.

* An investigation into House Majority Leader Tom DeLay's criminal
fundraising schemes in Texas -- which allegedly used corporate funds to
help state GOP lawmakers -- is already before a Texas grand jury.

* Republican staffers on the Senate Judiciary Committee were
investigated for stealing thousands of confidential memos from Dem
computers, a matter that has now been referred to the Justice Department
for a possible criminal probe.

* Republican Connecticut Gov. John Rowland is under a criminal
investigation (and an impeachment investigation) after he lied about
prominent state contractors and several government aides paying for
refurbishments to his lake-front cottage.

* Former Rep. Bill Janklow (R-S.D.) was under investigation for
vehicular manslaughter, a crime for which he was later convicted.

* The Pentagon launched a formal investigation into well-armed
evangelist and three-star General William "Jerry" Boykin, Bush's pick
for deputy undersecretary of defense for intelligence, and his record of
extreme religious rhetoric.

* The circumstances that led to the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001
are under investigation by a congressionally-authorized independent
commission (which, again, Bush fought the creation of and then later
resisted cooperating with).

* And honorable mentions should go, of course, to investigations into
Halliburton (Dick Cheney's former company) and Enron (George Bush's
biggest corporate supporter).

* The forged documents that led Bush to inaccurately claim that Iraq had
sought to purchase uranium from Niger are under investigation by a
Senate committee and the FBI

* John Korsmo, Bush's choice to chair the Federal Housing Finance Board,
is the target of an ongoing Justice Department criminal probe related to
his political fundraising activities and their subsequent cover-up. The
scandal cost Korsmo his career; he was forced to resign from his
position last week.

* The Texas GOP's decision to seek assistance from the FAA to track down
Democratic lawmakers fleeing the state to deny a legislative quorum was
the subject of two formal inquiries -- one from the U.S. Department of
Transportation, the other from the Department of Homeland Security

Hey, now, you know how it is! The righties will say NONE of this is
true, it's all false, and BushCo is grand, and they'll goose-step to
Bush-King-of-the-World, no matter what. Now, those damned Democrats,
THEY are the bad ones, they need to be run out of office for having
consentual sex.
