"Who’s the toughest hombre"
it's the game george loves best... if he has a chance to demonstrate his swagger, he'll take it every time... it certainly doesn't help that he has so many enablers surrounding him...
george's support is melting like ice shelves in the arctic... too bad it doesn't make any difference... he's going to go to the mat on this just like they said they would before the november elections...
i'm ready... i just hope congressional resolve doesn't start melting in the heat...

Rep. Bob Barr (R-GA), who served as a U.S. Attorney under President Reagan, appeared today on CNN.
Barr blasted the White House, saying “the integrity of the Department of Justice is being used as a political football by the administration to prove who’s the toughest hombre in all this.” Rather than fighting accountability, Barr said, “the administration really ought to be going out of its way to do what prior administrations have done, such as the Bush 1 administration and Reagan administrations, and that is take whatever steps are necessary to assure the American people that the integrity of our justice system has not been compromised.”
Barr added that members of Congress “have a pretty clear right to demand information” related to the U.S. Attorney purge. “These, after all, are all people, whether Karl Rove or a U.S. Attorney or an attorney general, who are paid by the taxpayers with funds appropriated by the Congress. And Congress has a right to assure itself that these funds are being used properly.”
