Gonzales' threat - nothing is bizarre anymore

what never ceases to astound me is how this administration can continue to do and say such outrageous things 1) with a straight face, and 2) without the entire country either falling over laughing or picking up rakes and hoes and storming the white house...
It's hard to say which was more bizarre about Attorney General Alberto Gonzales's threat to prosecute The Times for revealing President Bush's domestic spying program: his claim that a century-old espionage law could be used to muzzle the press or his assertion that the administration cares about enforcing laws the way Congress intended.

the administration only cares about things that will advance its power... there's really nothing else to say...
