Last night’s Countdown with Keith Olbermann did a piece on the Bush administration’s politicization of the Justice Department.  This video from MSNBC’s Countdown begins with a rundown of the events that led up to the DOJ’s release yesterday of an internal report entitled, An Investigation of Allegations of Politicized Hiring by Monica Goodling and Other Staff in the Office of the Attorney General(links to pdf of the official document).

The video includes commentary from Constitutional Law Professor, Jonathan Turley, whose perspective is always worthwhile.  If the video fails to play, click here.

    As you note, Prof. Turley brings a lot to the table. This week, he has began discussing attorneys like Monica Goodling and Kyle Sampson facing discipline proceedings by their respective bar associations, if and when a complaint is ever filed against them.
