Slow Wheels of Justice

The Justice Department is putting the full weight of its office behind an effort to investigate who leaked the existence of the NSA spying program to the New York Times.

A leak, mind you, that the Times had for a year.

And the White House knew they had it the whole time.

But they didn't investigate it then, and this leaker (or whistleblower, you decide) purportedly remained in his office, since otherwise there wouldn't have to be an investigation.

Now tell me again how this isn't politics?

What a joke.

In other news, Justice will not be investigating the legality of the actual program, because they lost their Constitution a few years ago and can't seem to find a spare one anywhere else in the government.
