> "I want to be absolutely clear, what the president ordered in this case was a crime"

Yes, it is absolutely clear that the President has committed felonies, shown contempt for the constitution, violated the rights of his own citizens, had secret jails for warantless indefinite detentions, had those obscene "renditions" and a hundred other acts which put our country in grave danger of becoming a crony corporate theocracy. It is also clear that any investigation would quickly show the presidential lies in the illicit and equally obscene war, the constant incompetence and carelessness in governing, the depth of corruption, etc.
But what is equally clear that as long as Republicans are in charge of all the committees, all the investigations, nothing will be done except rhetoric. The Republicans will move this country to accept whatever stupidity the President proposes and will scramble to protect the "reputation" of Bush by denial, lies,trickery, Swift boating, fake journalists, distractions, appeals to religion, patriotism, the flag, Jesus and any other device that comes to them. They will NOT allow anything to show the president lies, cheats, commits felonies, disrespects the Constitution ior anything negative. Instead they will all try to see which Senator can genuflect most deeply to kiss Bush’s back-side, laud his great vision, pronounce everything going splendidly, and show puzzlement that anyone would find fault with the Emperor. Their act of blindness will result in our country going down the drain of lies, corruption, incompetence, and lust for power of a small group of thugs in business suits.
