Mukasey knows how to work this game: appoint one of the DOJ's hundreds of flying monkeys to investigate. "We're looking into it," while of course the point will be to make it go away. Mukasey is a maestro of plausible deniability.

Dear god, don't even get me started on that insufferable ass. Even my parents -- card-carrying Republicans -- had to turn off the tube whenever she came on. So pompous and smarmy! Not to mention colossally wrong about everything. See? You got me all riled up.

"Breezy?" There's nothing breezy about the email exchange or the tone in which it was written, given the subject matter. The men are discussing the nature of heroism vis a vis the death of a soldier.

Fournier makes a straw apology, to coin a phrase, because he can't bring himself to address the real reason why the email is so troubling: he wanted to be Rove's friend, not a detached observer.

It would be interesting to read pieces he filed on and around that day and the days that followed. I bet they're very breezy.

The only thing Americans can do is just hope that Bush chooses not to break any more laws before he leaves office. That's it -- hope. Because there is no more law enforcement, and there is no legal recourse ... for anything. If you disagree, prove it.

Waxman has been emasculated almost as many times as Leahy. He is absolutely no match for these people, and gets laughed at over and over and over again.

Democrats are congenitally submissive. There isn't a single one who could even possibly take on Mukasey, let alone Bush or Cheney.

I feel especially sorry for Waxman since his motion to hold Mukasey in contempt is going to go down in humiliating flames.

Is there anything more cringe-inducing than constant public emasculation?

Webb has a toupee!! Or some sort of mutant weave. I need someone hotter and with a lower fat content.

Bush is going to get carpal tunnel from the use of his pardon pen.

They're both so hot. What a tough choice.
