Why they're REALLY stalling

they are truly between the proverbial rock and a very, very hard place...

The White House has delayed until next week a decision on whether to release additional documents and to permit top aides to President Bush, including Karl Rove, the chief political adviser, to testify in a Congressional inquiry into the dismissal of federal prosecutors.

Fred F. Fielding, the chief White House counsel, spent Friday evaluating the request and conferred with President Bush about it before Mr. Bush left for Camp David, a White House official said.

Mr. Fielding had initially told Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee that he hoped to have an answer by Friday, but he now expects to report back to the panel after the weekend.

“Given the importance of the issues under consideration, and the presidential principles involved, we need more time to resolve them,” Dana Perino, the deputy White House press secretary, said Friday.

hey... i'd be stalling as well... here's the big picture...

Bush WITH Gonzales

Bush WITHOUT Gonzales

when gonzales gets dumped - and he will - fully one-third of bush's front line disappears... i stick with my prediction of yesterday... the floodgates will open and the crap that will come flooding out will be staggering...
