Executive Privilege and the Gonzo (the clown) show down... IMPEACH NOW
Ok, actually, Jesselyn Radack has a great diary at Daily Kos called "Monday Morning Quarterbacking..."

But within the comments are some great analysis of executive privilege.

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2007/3/16/53341/2166

In case you're unfamiliar with who Jesselyn Radack is and why you should care what she has to say, you may want to read this and read her diaries at DailyKos. As we sit here and watch them flounder because they got caught putting politics in the DOJ just keep in mind that Jesselyn worked in the ETHICS department and was forced out of her job because she gave them ETHICAL ADVICE and she reported when they participated in a COVERUP and REFUSED to give her emails to the court as they were required to do under the subpoena! They DESTROYED EVIDENCE and they COVERED UP!

2. Gonzo is going to have to lead the impeachment process...
Once this administration finds out the new majority isn't messing around, they will be falling all over themselves to make deals to keep their own butts out of prison.

Someone has to go, and the sooner they get started, the more birds they'll catch before the end of the term. Cheney had his scatter gun, but all he got was a lawyer...Congress has the backing of the majority of citizens behind them and a lot of birds in their sights.

Let's move out.

3. This is so scary
All the jokes about the justice system being about just us are not jokes. Only GOPers matter in the our current rule of law.

Right now. Today. Tommorrow.

4. Gonzo IS The Right Place to Start Impeachment, Now That I Think About It
He is the center of all things not Rove. And since Rove isn't a govt. employee, he's out of reach. But Gonzo can bring everything into court, leading to Rove's eventual comeuppence as a co-conspirator. I like it!
