Disarray

Things must be bad. The cons can’t get their talking points properly in sync

President Bush said Monday the investigation into the outing of a covert CIA operative was “very serious,” even as Republican allies started casting aspersions on the prosecutor and the possibility of perjury charges.

The mixed signals came as special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald appeared close to indicting top White House officials in the nearly two-year investigation, lawyers involved in the case said.

Perjury is just a technicality, oh wait it isn’t, oh wait it is. See, simple not simple?

    That’s the first thing to come out of the mouth of George W. Bush that I can respect in over four years. Can it be that he’s breaking free of his handlers?

    Wilbur.

    It’s not the first time for Bush. Miers apparently is all Bush.

    Many times a person’s strength (resolution-sometimes called stubborn or pig-headed) is also his weakness. I would like to give him credit for the statement, but I think it was a moment of weakness. He’s been enabled by the yes-men so long (as well as his family) that he believes his every decision yields silver shekels. He has been supported on his feet for so long throughout his life, he thinks he stands on his own. Yin and yang wreak a terrible toll on those who fail to see the pendulum start to reverse.

    Sematicleo…

    We had this thread a few days ago…begrudgingly giving the man credit, then following up with a hopeful, “But it’s out of weakness!”
