ok---if Hood won’t go after anyone who is “family” and its pretty clear who all is in the “family”, then I wonder who he wants to use the wiretap on?  For someone who wants to be a DA instead of an AG, what’s up?  Hope the Senate kills this.

just u:  giving hood any authority he doesn’t already have is beyond frightening.  wire-tapping authority might be a good tool in the hands of a bona fide law enforcer.  hood does not qualify.  he has rendered himself and his office impotent.  but for certain confluences of forces and events, all this state can do is wait until his term ends.

Surely someone can stop this. Hood has proved by his statements about not prosecuting those who are involved in the biggest scandal in the state right now, that he is not to be trusted with additional powers.

dixie:  he can’t be trusted with the powers he has, much less additional ones.  didn’t the senate already say “UH-UH.” there’s always a veto by the governor.
