Title: Who watches the Watchers?

Since Bush gave the middle finger to congressional oversight, I guess it would make sense that he would simply refuse to staff the group that would make sure that wiretapping wasn't violating the law. The judiciary can similarly get stuffed.

Pretty brazen, but completely expected for the administration that couldn't be bothered with the concept of checks and balances.

Don't worry...

Just some 350 days untill Hillary can take over. All the evils of the world will be alleviated.  All will be well and joy will be felt throughout the world.
