When he was asked how those who violated civil service laws would be punished, Michael Mukasey stated that the "negative publicity" they have received would be enough and that there would be no other punishment. He explained that just because his predecessors in the Justice Department were breaking the law with their hiring processes doesn’t mean anyone should be held accountable: "not every wrong, or even every violation of the law, is a crime."
Excuse me, isn't a violation of the law a definition of crime. (Unlawful activity--free online dictionary)
This is how the Bush administration views violations of the law that they commit---not really crimes.
If you can get away with it, it is not really a crime.
