Here we go again: the prostitution of Justice

As in 2006 when the right-wing tried to use the Justice Department to fix the election. You remember the adventures of Alberto Gonzales. This is by Jason Leopold from Consortiumnews.com:
In a déjà vu moment from Campaign 2006, President George W. Bush again is asking his Attorney General to launch an investigation into the registration of hundreds of thousands of new voters, many of whom are expected to vote Democratic.

Bush forwarded to Attorney General Michael Mukasey a Republican request that he intervene in the battleground state of Ohio to force 200,000 new voters to either verify the information on their registration forms or cast provisional ballots, which are often thrown out after the voter leaves the polling place.
Remember: If you see something, say something.
