Suddenly GOP cares about the Constitution

Speaking of that moron Dennis Hastert, he suddenly-- like fellow Repuke John Boehner-- is up in arms over BushCo disregard for the Constitution. NO, it is not over the NSA, or torture, or lying to launch the Iraq war, or threatening to prosecute journalists who report on the govt's evil deeds. It is over the FBI raid of Rep Jefferson's office, of course. Why should they care if a Dem had his office raided by the FBI? B/c they are really afraid that their offices could be raided, too. My fav parts of their quotes? This hypocrisy just cracked me up: Boehner: "The Justice Dept employees take the same oath that I did, so somebody better start reading the Constitution down there." and Hastert: "It would appear that the Att Gen himself was aware that Separation of Powers concerns existed b/c in seeking the warrant the FBI suggested to the judge procedures it would follow to deal with Constitutionally protected materials." Suddenly the Constitution counts for something? How sanctimonious!
