I don't think you understand. One example...republicans like Domenici of NM was pressuring a NM state attorney to prosecute NM state Democrats.

By "less behind this issue", I meant less for Bush or Gonzalez.

There may be something fishy about what Domenici did. OTOH I'm not even so sure of that, it depends on exactly what pressure Domenici brought to bear.

Do you get it? They were interfering with the judicial process...that is a form of obstruction of justice.

No its not obstruction of justice. Obstruction of justice is when you hide evidence, make false statements, or through some other illegal means prevent a legal investigation, or prosecution, or conviction. Encouraging a prosecution, isn't obstruction of justice.
