A. Gonzales Is Master At "Deflection!"
Just now on CNN he was asked by Wolfie about Dubai Deal... he says that "the administration puts the security of the nation before everything else!"

Asked further questions, he simply says he doesn't want to get into the specifics or that they are reviewing and/or working on responses!

What a load of CRAP! Lying out his ASS and not answering ONE question at all! Did the very SAME thing at hearings! And THIS man, this EVIL EVIL man is the Attorney General of "what country is this?"

More to come at 7:00 PM hour with Wolfie... I think I'll pass!

1. Deflection? That implies turning questions to one side or the other.
Gonzales just lies. This administration has learned -- to a degree that seems unprecedented -- that there's no political penalty for being caught in a lie, so they don't even bother to try to tell the truth (hey, it saves on preparation time, if nothing else).

And America is letting them get away with it.

2. I Can't Say He Actually Lied... He Just Didn't Answer!
He sort of wormed and put out the normal SPIN! Just kept saying we are looking at it, we are checking it out, we are this or that...

Is Fuzzing it up better??

3. "the administration puts the security of...
...the nation before everything else!"

That's a problem, because the constitution is supposed to come first, not "protecting" the "American People".

I don't want any chimps trying to protect me.
