4. Charlie McCarthey never fired Edgar Bergen.
For the same reasons that B*sh cannot fire Cheney.

10. They didn't even rattle the gates over habeas corpus.
Gonzales testified under oath that there's no such thing as habeas, and the Dems were happy to welcome him to work the next day.

Somebody has to wake these people up.

Bush appears to shift course on CIA leak
President vows to fire anyone who committed a crime


Tuesday, July 19, 2005; Posted: 3:47 a.m. EDT (07:47 GMT)
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- President Bush appeared to backtrack Monday from his 2004 pledge to fire anyone involved in leaking the name of CIA operative Valerie Plame.

"I think it's best if people wait until the investigation is complete before you jump to conclusions," Bush said at a joint news conference with Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.

"I would like this to end as quickly as possible so we know the facts. And if someone committed a crime, they will no longer work in my administration," Bush said.

That appeared to differ from a response Bush gave in June 2004, when he was asked whether he stood by his promise to fire whoever was found to have leaked Plame's name. "Yes," Bush said at the time.

<snip>
"The president has moved the goal posts. Americans understand changing the rules of the game; they don't like it," said Sen. Edward Kennedy of Massachusetts.

"This apparently is now a whitewash. The president has to come clean on this issue."
