Big F***ing Surprise

Didn't see this one coming:
WASHINGTON (AP) - The Justice Department is siding with the Pentagon in a dispute with Illinois and a handful of other states, concluding that governors' consent isn't needed for the military to move Air National Guard units.
Really. You mean to tell me that the Bush Justice Department doesn't think the Bush Defense Department is doing anything wrong. That's a stunning turn of events. I never would have predicted it. Well gosh, we might as well just give up and go home. See ya 183rd, the Bush administration has made its decision. Remember that Springfield Bush lovers. I don't want any of you complaining about the 183rd leaving. To question Dear Leader is to embrace the terrorists is what I've been told over and over and over....

But heavens, someone does think there is something smelly about this convenient collaboration:
Pennsylvania officials questioned the propriety of the Justice Department offering opinions to the base closing commission while also representing the Defense Department against the state's lawsuit.

"Where is the independent judgment or analysis?" asked Adrian R. King Jr., an aide to Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell. "As far as this state's concerned, the only opinion that matters is the opinion of a judge in a court of law and that's why we filed the lawsuit."
Oh banish the thought! If the Bush justice Department says its OK for the Bush Defense Department to do something, then it must be so.
Pennsylvania has a long history of treason anyway. Like that time those guys tried to Declare Independence form the legitimate government of the land in 1776. Stupid blue state.
