Obnoxious Hypocritical Quote of the Day

We will not go along with a partisan fishing expedition aimed at honorable public servants.

That's the Rt. Hon. President George W. Bush, railing against Democrats who are investigating the Alberto Gonzales Justice Department's brazen partisan purge aimed at honorable public servants.

I'm unprincipled and I'm pissed off. Consider yourselves warned.

The aforementioned servants would be the US Attorneys canned because they wouldn't go along with a Rovian scheme to selectively prosecute Democrats in advance of the 2006 elections and otherwise serve as exclusive bootlicks to the Bush White House. The "servants" Bush refers to would be more appropriately described as "henchmen".

Far be it from Bush to totally ignore the other side, though. He has offered to allow Congress to question a couple of aides provided they are not under oath, it happens behind closed doors and no notes of any kind are taken.

Not that they have anything to hide.
