The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal Editorial, 8/20/8
The current set of guilty pleas in federal court in the Northern District of Mississippi by Georgia executives with the The Facility Group is a head scratcher.

Well, with all due respect to the prosecutors at the U.S. Department of Justice, they had better get off their hindquarters and get busy. Under that definition, they can prosecute just about every politician and campaign donor in the country.
