Bush Aides Won't Face Grand Jury Investigation

(CN) - Prosecutors can ignore a Connecticut attorney's request to have a grand jury investigate alleged crimes committed by members of the Bush administration, a federal judge ruled.

Francis T. Mandanici is well known in the blogosphere as a persistent critic of Bush family politics and also as one-time crusader against Whitewater special prosecutor Kenneth Starr.

He had asked that the U.S. attorney's office empanel a grand jury to investigate alleged criminal activities surrounding claims made by Bush administration in January 2003 that Iraq had sought uranium to make a nuclear weapon.

Noting that the "U.S. attorney's office has declined to request a summons of a grand jury and does not seek to return an indictment, effectively foreclosing prosecution," Chief U.S. District Judge Royce C. Lamberth said the Washington, D.C., will not take any action on his request.

They own that grand jury.

The Attorney General has decided not to go mucking around in any alleged war crimes or crimes against humanity, because really, nothing all that good will come of it. So a few law-breakers might go to jail, but would that really change anything? No, much better to just leave the past in the past and let by-gones be bygone.

Hope. Change. Believe in it!
