Gonzales: Bush blocked eavesdropping probe http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060718/ap_on_go_ca_st_pe/eavesdropping_gonzales;_ylt=AjW1iETs3uYnWjC._24bUPKs0NUE;_ylu=X3oDMTA3OTB1amhuBHNlYwNtdHM-
AP: Bush personally blocked DOJ wiretapping probe "According to AP, the Justice Department's Office of Professional Responsibility claimed that it "could not pursue an investigation into the role of Justice lawyers in crafting the program...". Specter found this puzzling: "It was highly classified, very important and many other lawyers had access. Why not OPR?" To which Gonzales replied: "The president of the United States makes the decision." Now, it seems to me that the last time it came to light that a President had specifially instructed Justice to "back off" an investigation, a bunch of Republicans went to jail and one of them resigned from the Oval Office. As we know, Count 4 of Article 1 of the impeachment of Richard Nixon accuses the President of: Interfering or endeavoring to interfere with the conduct of investigations by the Department of Justice of the United States..." http://dailykos.com/storyonly/2006/7/18/11561/3142

Republican Leadership: Crisis in the Middle East? Ban Gay Marriage
by Rep Louise Slaughter "It doesn't matter what the challenges this nation faces are. Republicans just go back to the same old playbook. Rising gas prices and a record national debt? Ban gay marriage.
War erupting in Iraq and the broader Middle East? Protect the Pledge of Allegiance.
This is a failed Republican Congress. They ought to be embarrassed of themselves."
