"Now before the strong GW supporters jump in there and state “well they haven’t done anything illegal, it was within his rights…”

We don’t know that they haven’t done anything illegal. One of the highest-ranking lawyers linked to the White House, Ms. Goodling, fears she might have and has chosen not to chance incriminating herself. Since she played no role in the decisionmaking process, virtually the only possibility I can think of is she fears there was indeed a criminal conspiracy.

“I no more want full demo control of things than I wanted full goper control.”

Bipartisan control is a recipe for disaster. It gave us NAFTA/CAFTA, WTO, “free” trade, shipping of jobs overseas, blinded six-year-olds sewing Nike soccer balls in Islamabad, global pollution and global warming, immiseration of the Third World, hundreds of thousands of those immiserated making it over the U.S. southern border, failed drug policy and aid to the Taliban, half a million dead children in Iraq, lies perpetuated by a CIA director serving at the whim of the leaders of both parties, and continuing conflict with Iran, and nuclear weapons in Pakistan and North Korea. Bipartisanship is crap (but it might be better than Democratic or Republican control. ;))
