How do you define Hypocrisy?
With three little words, The Republican Party. Forget about how the Republicans have lost the war in Iraq and want to continue killing US soldiers. Forget about how, after trying to destroy public education with No Child Left Behind, the Republicans now want to destroy health care for children. Forget about how the Republican party desperately wants to start another war with Iran to try and advance a goal that failed its first step in Iraq. But do remember Iran because ABC News has this choice morsel.
For more than 25 years, U.S. intelligence and law enforcement authorities say they have suspected the New York-based Alavi Foundation is a "front" for Iranian espionage and anti-American activities.So the nominee for Attorney General has had a close working relationship with what may be the prime Iranian espionage group in this country. And if Dickwahd gets his way, when we go to war with Iran, Iran may very well have an agent in one of the top cabinet posts in our government. Because you know, if given a choice between a piddly government salary for 18 months and a fat juicy retainer from a long time client, the Republican will always work for the long time client.
For more than 25 years, court records show the foundation has been publicly defended and represented by the New York law firm where attorney-general nominee Michael Mukasey is a partner: Patterson Belknap Webb & Tyler LLP.
The foundation says the firm continues to represent it.
Mukasey personally handled at least one matter in court for the foundation.
