Yeah. The only consolation is that the complete denial might provide a faster track to wider disreputability than arguing the need for it or what constitutes torture— though I'm sure we'll be getting back to those two things in a bit. More foolishness on Bush's part might lead to greater motivation by others to uncover the truth.
I look forward to the hubris, self-righteousness, and mendacity coming back to destroy the guilty. I want conservative Christians en masse to admit that they were Wrong to back W., and I want the policies of the administration to be so discredited that I won't live to see them in implemented again during my (long) life. Maybe that's hoping for too much.
At a press conference with the president of Panama (http://www.salon.com/politics/war_room/index.html?blog=/politics/war_room/2005/11/07/bushtrip/index.html), Bush was asked by a reporter, "Back in October of 2000, this is what you said... 'We will ask not only what is legal, but what is right; not what the lawyers allow, but what the public deserves.' In the CIA leak case, has your administration lived up to this campaign promise?" As usual, Bush answered with something about on-going investigation and seriousness.
