Our ongoing study of the Bush Justice Department (to be published in 2009) investigates the implications of the Bush/Ashcroft/Gonzales Justice Department's blended religious -fundamentalist and neo-conservative rhetorical vision. The study views the impact of the Justice Department's vision on the fight against public corruption and reveals the non-proportionate political profiling of elected Democratic officials.
We compare political profiling to racial profiling by presenting the results (January 2001 through December 2006) of the U.S. Attorneys' federal investigation and/or indictment of 375 elected officials. The distribution of party affiliation of the sample is compared to the available normative data (50% Dem, 41% GOP, and 9% Ind.).
Data* indicate that the offices of the U.S. Attorneys across the nation investigate seven (7) times as many Democratic officials as they investigate Republican officials, a number that exceeds even the racial profiling of African Americans in traffic stops.
The current Bush Republican Administration appears to be the first to have engaged in political profiling. Our paper calls for new federal laws that would create a national registry of federal investigations of elected officials by party affiliation. This new, political profiling registry could well be a hybrid of the current requirement for state and local reports of racial profiling in traffic stops and the Commerce Department's Office of Labor Management Standards' annual report on Union corruption.

Yes I see the Toddster's Daddy, John on the list. I don't think they will pursue this as no one has seen hide nor hair from him in a little over a year since he had his last stroke.
Yes and his personal physician Dr. Simon who lied through his teeth on John Strogers condition is in charge of the Toddster's Medical area's of Cook County.......nice guy, you can really trust him.
William Beavers.....he was interviewed for 30 minutes on public Television by John Callaway on Chicago Tonight and said there is nothing wrong with hiring family and friends.....and guess what he is up for. I am glad Sandi Jackson beat his daughter out for Ward 8 Alderman.
Troutman......yes her Ward (20)finally got fed up with her and all her gangbanger boyfriends and voted in a Police SGT. , but she got in her final vote against the Olympics. Interesting list.
How long till the Toddster makes it? or his buddies?
"How long till the Toddster makes it? or his buddies?"
This list was put together by individuals that profiled the Administration from 2001-today of all the corrupted officials. It is interesting to see the list of corrupted officials. Now, you questions about the Toddster. Since we have a corrupted Administration and a messed up DOJ, we have to look at that nothing was done with Toddy's daddy. Until Gonzo leaves, a lot of the current investigation will stay and future investigation will not come to surface like Todd. But, once Gonzo is removed and more investigation to the Administration, tax payers like yourself need to step up to the place and want Todd remove. I know you told me that there is nothing you can do, But, his father's investigation should resurface first before Todd. You get the daddy then you will get the son.
The Toddster puts his hands up and gives a dumb look and says well this is what happened before I came president, (i.e. half a million missing money) It only shows you how clueless he is, yes he inherited a lot of problems from John Stroger, previous president, Daddy. From what I can gather Daddy (John) Stroger is in really bad shape, unable to talk etc. When The Toddster was asked if Daddy knew he became President, we got the typical Toddster reply a silly grin with a shoulder shrug.
