What Rule of Law?

I honestly can no longer keep track of all the laws this administration has broken. If I had it in me to compile the long list, I would. Has anyone seen such a list?
Lies, laws, leadership?
We, the citizens of the US, can't even get an investigation into illegal wiretapping!

"It is no exaggeration to say that no administration in American history has had as much contempt for the law as this one."

Our memories are so filled with episodes of the administration's contempt for the law that each new one pushes an old one out the back door of our minds.

In the most recent, Attorney General Alberto Gonzalez sent a letter to Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Arlen Specter “clarifying” testimony he gave on February 6. In what amounted to a “By the way, I kind of perjured myself before you,” Gonzales said that when he said the “Terrorist Surveillance Program” was “all that [President Bush] has authorized” in the area of warrantless surveillance, “I was confining my remarks to the Terrorist Surveillance Program as described by the President.” This tautological sleight-of-hand can lead one only to conclude that there are other “programs” of surveillance. But don’t ask what they might be.
