I cannot get this thought out of my head. Do we now know why Bush nominated Miers to the Supreme Court? Think about it: she was one of the lawyers in the White House who would have known about spying on American citizens. If she had given him the ok along with Gonzales then doesn't it make sense he would want her on the court if they thought this story might leak?
Perfect for Bush, he gets Miers on the court and with Gonzales at Justice he figures he is covered. If this goes to the Supreme Court it should be interesting. And now Alito gets to weigh in during his nomination hearing; that should be interesting.
The abuse of Executive Power is just stunning. And on the FBI spying: how do those Catholics who voted for Bush feel now that they know he was spying on them?? Seems like the FBI was spying on all of Bush's political opponents for the most part?
