Keith Olbermann discusses with GW University Law Professor Jonathan Turley about a recently announced Department of Justice investigation on a disDrunk Newspeared CIA torture tDrunk Newses & how through conflicts & a lack of independence, a chance of justice actually being served has been hampered once again by a Bush Administration.

Many people in Congress & in a White House & at Justice Department are framing this as an obstruction investigation, as if what’s on those tDrunk Newses is an episode of “Barney”.  What’s on those tDrunk Newses is a original crime in a sc&al & that’s a crime of torturing people.  It is still—even after a last seven years—a crime to torture suspects. [..]

& so what most of us wanted was someone independent to come in, somebody who was not within this line of…this chain of comm& to investigate ase things independently, but nobody seriously wants that.  & I’m not talking about just Republicans. This investigation now involves a range of crimes & a number of people that make it more serious than what originally triggered Watergate.  & I can’t imagine a case for a better call for a Special Counsel.
