Mukasey used his sharpest words yet to criticize the senior leaders who took part in or failed to stop illegal hiring practices during the tenure of his predecessor, Alberto Gonzales.
But, he told delegates to the American Bar Association annual meeting, "not every wrong, or even every violation of the law, is a crime. In this instance, the two joint reports found only violations of the civil service laws."
Not every violation of the law is a crime?? If you can't make that distinction that a violation of the law, even a civil one, is a crime. It's just a matter of what the punishment is for said crime, whether it be jail or a massive fine.
Someone needs to take his meds, because I can't believe the Attorney General of the United States would make such a stupid remark.
