We Can't Go In There, It's Too Perilous

The Justice Department's Inspector General's office has released its report on US Attorneygate, and has concluded that due to nobody saying a damn thing, a dreaded special prosecutor is needed to get to the bottom of the case. (h/t TPM Muckracker)

Late update: The report also describes the stonewalling the investigation received in trying to gather information on the removals. Specifically, it mentions a "fact memo" created for Alberto Gonzales by the DOJ's Office of Legal Counsel, which outlined the events chronologically, using a draft written by Michael Scudder, associate White House Counsel. Investigators were refused the timeline by the OLC who claimed they were ordered not to release it by the White House Counsel's office.

This just keeps getting worse. Will an Obama administration follow up on this?

[UPDATE] Could it be Mukasey actually doing his job?
