- "Asked what Mukasey saw in Orwell, Justice Department spokesman Peter Carr said it was his clarity. "When he was a judge, he assigned new law clerks George Orwell's 1946 essay 'Politics and the English Language.' It's one of the first things our speechwriter received as well," Carr said.
Orwell wrote in his essay, "Political language ... is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind." moreThis is unbelievable. In your face America; the highest law enforcement officer in the country will lie to you, spy on you and allow murder and torture to be committed in your name.
Oh and by the way, GWB has just nominated lawyer Steven G. Bradbury to be second in command at the Justice Department. The New York Times reported on Oct. 4 that Mr. Bradbury authored two memos on torture. He was the Justice Department's "yes" man on torture.

- This story is purely amazing. The Attorney General has a portrait of George Orwell hanging in his office. The Author of 1984. (pause) Unbelievable.
