You Know, Some People Voted For These Guys TWICE.

The White House is just being so darned accomodating to those Democrat vultures in Congress, it really boggles the mind. From the Post: "The White House has said it would allow current or former White House officials to speak to the committee only under strict limitations. Specifically, Bush has insisted that the officials not be compelled to testify under oath, that their testimony not be recorded or transcribed and they speak to a limited number of lawmakers in private." I mean, what more could you ask for, really?

I have a question, though. How is that different from saying "Sure, we'll talk about whatever you guys want to talk about. Oh, but, one more thing, we want to be able to lie with impunity about what we did, limit the number of witnesses, minimize the chance of leaks, and have no record, audible, visual, or textual, of what we discussed. Cool with you guys?"

Anybody want to take a crack at that one? Because I'm sure that there's people who disagree with me on this. Care to speak up? I would really love to hear a good, muscular rationalization of how those conditions jive with the concept of oversight.
