A pattern of Bush DoJ Scapegoating DoD?

Reading the comments to Bruce Ivins' local paper today, there was this post:

shfreeman - You're funny. No, DOD is not worried about the FNP. It is the item that has been in the news for the past month and was simply repeated in the FNP that is the issue. As much as I despise repeating items, I will do it in this case...... DOJ has attempted to place the entire legal problem of the illegal questioning and torture of prisoners who had not received legal rights into the hands of DOD. The FBI was told to leak information to the press that it tried to tell the military investigators and another agency that it should not be carrying out qurestionable practices with the enemy combatants and that DOJ was so worried about the legal issues that DOD was creating. All this, albeit Alfredo "you were my brother" Gonzales authorized the activity. DOD is very pissed off about being made the scapegoat. But this is another issue.

And, when you think about it, DoJ scapegoating DoD on torture parallels the anthrax case exactly: FBI, a DoJ outfit, finding the culprit in an Army operation at Ft. Detrick.

The Bush administration seems to have captured DoJ in a way they haven't captured DoD, especially since Rumsfeld was forced to resign.

1. Army Corp of Engineers were scapegoated for Katrina.

DoJ framed and pushed torture policy and Army gets blamed for Abu Graib.

Air Force "stand down" on 9/11.

I don't want to go crazy here (it may be too late) but, is this something?

2. And this comment by poster fredrick.county

Now, as many of us know, there is a large friction between DOJ and DOD, mostly because of what has been posted yesterday. And that is the reason why the OSECDEF has released heavily redacted data that was published in the Washington Times that shows that DOD investigators had found anthrax spores in three areas outside of the lab used by Bruce Ivins and that DOJ requested that that data be classified and not be released. Why would that be so?
