It turns out that most of the executive branch of the government now works for the Republican party. U.S. attorneys who had failed to grasp that fact were fired. Emails that exposed it were destroyed. State governors who got in the way became political prisoners. And an intellectually challenged Attorney General who could take orders but not remember what he&rsquo;d had for breakfast was scared out of town after committing perjury on television. His bosses laughed and replaced him with a clone. Congress complied. <br /><br />Not that Congress wasn&rsquo;t very, very concerned. In fact, Rep. Henry Waxman alone destroyed a forest writing letters to the White House and publishing reports like this one: <br /><a href="http://oversight.house.gov/documents/20070618105243.pdf">http://oversight.house.gov/documents/20070618105243.pdf</a> <br /><br />By the end of 2007 I saw an editorial cartoon in the paper with holiday lights on the White House spelling out: &ldquo;No Comment: Ongoing Investigation.&rdquo; A man in the cartoon commented: &ldquo;They just leave them up all year now.&rdquo; These were some of the choice headlines from 2007 on the your-tax-dollars-pay-for-the-Republican-Party theme: Administration Withheld Emails About Rove <br /><a href="http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/22360">http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/22360</a> GSA Chief Is Accused of Playing Politics <br /><a href="http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/20480">http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/20480</a> DOJ Made Immigration Judgeships Political <br /><a href="http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/22965">http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/22965</a> New Justice Department documents show White House involvement in Attorneys firings <br /><a href="http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/23628">http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/23628</a> Legal Memo Confirms White House Led Effort To Target And Remove U.S. Attorneys <br /><a href="http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/24124">http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/24124</a> Politicization of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy <br /><a href="http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/24781">http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/24781</a> Conyers&rsquo; Staff Documents More Crimes and Abuses, But He Still Won&rsquo;t Impeach <br /><a href="http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/25054">http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/25054</a> Emails Detail RNC Voter Suppression in Five States <br /><a href="http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/25135">http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/25135</a> Commerce, Treasury Funds Helped Boost GOP Campaigns <br /><a href="http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/25929">http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/25929</a> State Department Agents Say Jobs Were Threatened <br /><a href="http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/27292">http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/27292</a> The United States Attorneys Scandal Comes to Mississippi <br /><a href="http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/27631">http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/27631</a> Daughter of jailed governor sees White House hand in her father&rsquo;s fall <br /><a href="http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/28972">http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/28972</a> Bush Tries to Seize Control of Military Lawyers <br /><a href="http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/29429">http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/29429</a> (Here&rsquo;s Why) Meet Tom Fiscus <br /><a href="http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/29041">http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/29041</a> White House Illegally Deleted Over TEN MILLION Emails <br /><a href="http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/29258">http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/29258</a> <br /><br /><strong>ELECTION FRAUD</strong> Of course, the point is to continue stealing elections.
