"Executive Privilege" NEW Grand Theft Election, (because W. has always lived as if above the law)
What timing! Former Karl Rove aid, Sara Taylor refuses to testify on the grounds of executive privilege, even though she claims that W. had nothing to do with the Federal Attorney firings, to which Sen Leahy responds (not in these exact words) "Say what? How can he claim executive privilege if he wasn't involved? Do you guys think we were born yesterday? This sounds like contempt of Congress" And faux maverick Spectre smirks "Just try to get anyone at the DOJ to serve a warrant for your Contempt of Congress. You may be in control of Congress, but WE control the law in this country, buster, and we are gonna break it as much as we want."

Impeach Gonzales for serial perjury before Congress. Force his successor to appoint a special prosecutor to begin issuing demands for documents that the White House will not be able to ignore, because the law says that executive privilege can not be used to avoid investigation of criminal matters. Pass the popcorn.

Oh, and about the topic, it is something that W. knows all about. He was born above the law. Even before he ran for president, he was AWOL and DWI. In Arlington, Tx he seized land from private citizens for his Ballpark using his political ties. He committed insider trading, and his Daddy got him off. Election laws were broken in Florida before and after the election in 2000 to steal the election for him. The SCOTUS broke the law in Bush v. Gore and ruled based upon the identities of the parties in a lawsuit. All kinds of laws were broken for Enron. More laws were broken for election 2004. The FBI has been on a mission to dismantle the Constitution, with his blessing. He has tortured and illegally imprisoned and lied, and he does it all with a smirk that says "I sure am having fun!"

In anyone else, this kind of behavior would be enough to earn the label "antisocial." For W. it just makes him a typical Bush.
