He looks like the man in American Gothic, minus the integrity.
Huh… not sure why the Dems don’t want the lead prosecutor in the Salem Witch Trials making the decision.
I’d be fine with letting Rosenstein appoint the #SpecialProsecutor provided that it was #SallyYates.
The reason he has to appoint a special prosecutor is that his recent actions have generated (at least) a strong appearance of a conflict of interest. He participated in the firing of Comey by a potential target of the investigation overseen by Comey, while Comey was reporting to him. So having him appoint a special prosecutor after disqualifying himself from further involvement in the case doesn’t wash.
This guy has to be the lowest… right down there with Trump.
And, “in” with Sessions and all that means.
Just disgusting.
The Justice Department has no credibility and will destroy itself with these guys!
Rosensten showed his hand. now he must pay the “no confidence” price.
Just how recused is Jeff Sessions? His finger prints are all over Comey’s firing.
He’ll pick Guliani and if you don’t like him, Christie!
Not only that but his signature too!
Rosenstein - was he a neighbor in Rosemary’s Baby?
Or perhaps a dentist asking “is it safe?”. Or maybe a decision-maker at Birkenau.
The wonder if this Hatchet Man role is too unattractive even for Christie or Giuliani? Christie is rich for example and I am not sure that he will eventually reason that he genuinely needs this opprobrium!
Rosenstein is guilty of holding American’s legs open while Trump rapes her democratic institutions. In a just world, he would swing for it. But this is anything but a just world, so we will have to settle for the certain knowledge that he will carry the putrid stench of his cowardly iniquity to his grave. To the extent that this wretched tool is remembered at all, it will be as loathsome handmaid to tyranny.
So say goodbye, Mr. Rosenstein, to any dignity or respect that you may have ever had, and wave to it as it circles the toilet bowl for the last time on its way out of this veil of tears.
I don’t like the fact that he’s wearing a v-throated shirt and there’s a wrinkle on his tie knot … —
He looks like satan’s favorite son.
He was a scapegoat and he’s pissed.
i thought TPM said this guy was a square shooter?
just because he wrote the opinion that got the FBI director who was investigating his boss doesn’t mean he is a lackey.
cant understand these obstructionist democrats.
can you?
They cut out his shit-shovelling pitchfork…
Perhaps Ivanka could choose a special prosecutor. Given how things work in this administration, it seems likely that she’ll be charged with that task.
