As a follow up to the illegal Texas redistricting story, apparently
Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales defended approval of the plan, telling reporters on Friday morning that he was confident that the decision was correct. Conflicting views simply reflected a healthy deliberative process, Mr. Gonzales said.
In any sane country, we do not give equal time to people who think that 2 + 2 = 5. Giving equal time to things that are in clear violation of the law is not a healthy deliberative process, it is a deranged one. Furthermore, approving things that are in violation of the law makes sure that the deliberative process is like Terri Schiavo - for all intensive purposes brain dead but kept alive by life support and giving the faintest illusion of being alive.
This is a straight line of corruption from within the state legislature all the way up to the justice department and the executive. These are not isolated issues where Republicans are acting independently; it is all part of a concerted plot to gain and keep power by any means possible, whether it is legal or not, and all parties involved are guilty.
