President Pissy-Pants

Tbogg says it better than I ever could.

I guess we shouldn't be surprised, but I'm constantly amazed by the chutzpa. They've all but admitted that they lied about the AG purge, and Abu Gonzo's boy Kyle Sampson has already bit the bullet and resigned. There's an obvious question around whether obstruction of justice has occurred, and at the very least, Gonzo's ability to remain credible as the highest ranking law enforcement officer in the land is severely compromised. Tangentially, the FBI's use of National Security Letters further calls into question Justice's oversight and competence, and we haven't even begun to scratch the surface on that. Even the Republicans in the Congress won't go down this spider hole with Bush, and he ought to know it.

No transcripts, without going under oath, in private? You have got to be kidding. Unless Rove sees political advantage in forcing Congress to issue subpoenas, I'm not sure how this works in the White House's favor.
