Rogue Congress
President Bush needs to attack the Leftinistra as hard as his Texicanisms can muster!!
“If the Senate and House judiciary committees issue subpoenas for Karl Rove and other White House aides to testify to their roles in the firing of the eight U.S. attorneys, President Bush should defy the subpoenas. He should accept the contempt citations and fight it all the way to the Supreme Court.
Indeed, he has a duty to do so. For Bush is today the custodian of an office that is the subject of assault by a partisan and hostile Congress.
This is not about the incompetence of the Justice Department of Attorney General Alberto Gonzales or about any White House role in the firing of the eight — whom President Bush had every right to fire.
This is about preserving and protecting the integrity of the institution of the presidency. It is about the right of America’s head of state and head of government to receive the candid counsel of his most trusted advisers…”
