Ultimately. it's up to Fitzgerald and co., and all the rest of the career professionals to make sure this case is airtight and prosecutable. In their hubris, Bushco has left a magnificent trail of bread crumbs for the prosecutors to follow.

Of course, we've seen these rogues skate on crime after crime, and there's no guarantee that this one will be any different, though the indicators do seem to be tending towards indictments.

But regardless, history (if anyone survives to write it) will show that the Bush presidency is the most venal, self-entitled, corrupt and incompetent in American history.

And Pat, theyve been playing the Christian Right Wing like fish on a string. Bushco doesnt give a shit about you, or your pet issues. They treat you and will continue to treat you like the Democrats have always treated the African-American vote. You're just a bunch of dumb hillbillies to Bushco. Youre just there to deliver votes and cash.
