Channeling Nixon

Grab some popcorn and your favorite libation folks, the White House psychodrama of extreme incompetence and desparation continues to unfold.

In the AP news story linked below, good 'ol George W is invoking "executive privelege" in refusing to turn over documents and information pertaining to the questionable and quite possibly politically motivated firings of several Federal prosecutors. And as if that wasn't enough, the Bush crew is also under subpoena for documents/information pertaining to the illegal warrantless wiretapping/surveillance program. That can ONLY mean one thing, these guys have SOMETHING to hide.

Got news for ya George, it DIDN'T work for Richard Nixon and it sure ain't working for you and your band of merry incompetents either!
