Ladies And Gentlemen...
please welcome the Attorney General of the United States... Alberto... no - wait...Abu Ghra... erm - hold on... Oh Yeah! Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome...Avoid the Question Gonzales!
What a fucking joke! For starters, if he's supposed to be testifying, why the hell wasn't he sworn in? Maybe it's just a technicality, but holy shit! He lied during his confirmation hearing, so why wouldn't he do it again? I say the bastard should have been sworn in.
Next on the list - Since when is "I don't feel comfortable answering that question" an acceptable answer to anything when your testifying? WTF?
Get the fuck out of here!
This entire hearing was an exercise in masurbatory spin. Republicans and democrats alike (except for the Republican ass kissers like Sessions that continually put party above country) pressed him hard and he evaded and dodged all day long. Basically, his answer to the legality of the domestic spying program could be summed up like this:
At what point did the Constitution get superceded by Abu Gonzales' opinion?
Day after day, my country is being torn down by the administration who was going to bring integrity back to the White House. Little did we know that integrity was Crawford-speak for "We're going to try and sneak through every single legal loophole we can find to screw the American public."
If shit like this doesn't wake the American public from their haze, I don't know what will.

- Lawyer: Now Mr. Dahmer, did you or did you not kill those young men and hide their bodies in your freezer?
Dahmer: I'm sorry, I don't feel comfortable answering that question.
Lawyer: Okay! Good enough for me!
