Michael Mukaseythe 81st AG took office with a decidedly pointed comment about the dangers the country now faces as opposed to the last time Mukasey was in office in 1972.
He said:"I have said previously that much has changed since 1972, when I took the same oath I took today to serve in the United States Attorney's Office, and indeed it has. There are laws on the books today that did not exist when I was sworn in then, and there are problems that confront us now that did not confront us then, mainly but not entirely involving the threat to our security from those who believe it is their religious duty to make war on us."
