Tony Snow sez nothing for 47 minutes but stonewall....

All indicators point to Guilty as Guilty does.

4. I'm on your side, but I hate to point out...
that your title sounds awfully close to the "If you haven't done anything wrong, why worry?" argument that Thugs use to support the Chimpy's snooping, etc., and other assaults on our liberties. I think they're guilty, too. But let the subpoenas come out. This is looking more and more like 1974 every hour. And we know how that ended.

11. It DOES matter what a public servant does in private!
That's the difference -- they owe us accountability, since they are our employees. We don't owe it to them.

16. I agree 100%, but I didn't like the sound of
"if they're not guilty then why do they LOOK guilty?" or however it was phrased in the OP. Believe me, I'm with you.

They certainly don't act like they're innocent!

14. Guilty of using the Justice Dept for Political Gain....The White House are hiding the truth
This is not a way to run a Gov't

Common Sense dictates sworn testimony...if prevarications result....perjury charges can be filed...as in Scooters case...

The Bushies are hiding shit in a closet...but the stench is overwhelming the door and into the hallways...

Mr Bush is not a Dictator...he is an employee of the American People....as such, he must not resist the System set up a long time ago to keep our gov't clean as possible....

Firings is one thing...its happened before...but in this case...the replacements no longer are subjected to a Senate confirmation because of a loophole in the Patriot Act....making Bush the sole appointer of said attorneys....this is bad shit for the Nation...
