BIDEN: We will pursue Bushco crimes with "a fine-toothed comb" 
 Advertisements [?]Biden Rips Bush Administration
September 03, 2008 7:19 AM - http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalradar/2008/09/biden-r...


ABC News' Matthew Jaffe reports: While Republicans congregate in the Twin Cities striving to keep their hold on the White House, Barack Obama's running mate Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., sharply criticized the Bush administration Tuesday while delineating the changes Democrats would demand if they rise to power.

"In an Obama-Biden administration, we will not have an attorney general who blatantly breaks the law," Biden said at a town-hall meeting in West Palm Beach, Florida, his voice at times drowned out by applause. "We will not have a president who doesn't understand the Constitution.

Looking to the future but with one eye on the past, Biden also promised that an Obama-Biden government would go through Bush administration data with "a fine-toothed comb" and pursue criminal charges if necessary.

"If there has been a basis upon which you can pursue someone for a criminal violation," he said, "they will be pursued, not out of vengeance, not out of retribution - out of the need to preserve the notion that no one, no one, no attorney general, no president, no one is above the law."

==============
To quote Barry Goldwater, "Moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue."

To quote the former chairman of the Senate Judiciary Comm, Joe Biden, "no president ... is above the law."

Biden's comb is useful for little else, so why not?

Who's that judiciary committee guy that promised the same thing for his election?

Whatever happened to that?
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

Biden only learned recently how to spell "Constitution" while plagiarizing his speech for the DNC Convention.
