Guest blogged by DES<\/em><\/p>\n

The last week here at BRAD BLOG<\/a> has been dominated by the concept of Justice: the dispensing of it and the perversion of it.<\/p>\n

Tuesday was the Big Day: in the morning, former Cheney Chief of Staff I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby was sentenced to 30 months<\/a> in prison for perjury in obstructing the investigation of the unprecedented outing of a CIA agent by senior Bush Administration officials. (Be sure to read BRAD BLOG D.C. Correspondent Margie Burns’s analysis<\/a> of the sentencing.) That afternoon, Bradley Schlozman appeared before the Senate Judiciary Committee to explain<\/a> his many partisan, anti-democratic, anti-voter activities during his many jobs in the Bush Administration’s Department of Justice. BRAD BLOG’s DoJ source called Schlozman’s words “on the razor’s edge of perjury.”<\/a> “Schlozzie” may want to revise<\/a> his testimony…<\/p>\n

But the most fun this week came from BRAD BLOG<\/a> stories you won’t get anywhere else (at least until the MSM swipe them without attribution<\/a>)… Like Bush-Cheney operative Mark “Thor” Hearne, who is miffed<\/a> that BRAD BLOG<\/a> has stuck a wrench into his Republican dirty tricks machine, exposing his now-defunct<\/a> astroturf organization, ACVR<\/a>, devoted to spreading the Republican Myth of Voter Fraud, and slamming renewed attempts<\/a> to push through disenfranchising Voter I.D. laws in the State of Missouri — Hearne’s especiales de la casa<\/em> — along with exposing other Bush Administration shenanigans<\/a> intended to muck with your legitimate right to vote…<\/p>\n

Other stories you saw here first: L.A. talk radio host Bree Walker stepped up to the plate to take ownership<\/a> of Cindy Sheehan’s Peace House in Crawford, TX… Democratic Congressional Candidate John Russell, on his ongoing battle<\/a> to get a fair hearing of the evidence in his election challenge… BRAD BLOG’s exposure of PFAW<\/a>‘s disinformation regarding the Holt bill, HR 811… The questionable editing practices<\/a> of the KC Star in anti-Bush Administration stories…<\/p>\n

It’s all here — the good, the bad, the ugly, and the chipmunk<\/a>…<\/p>\n
