Here's Bush "responding" to a question about whether he whether he ordered Card and Gonzales to Ashcroft's hospital bedside in 2004. "Is the program classified? And which program would that be? Is the name of the person who ordered Card and Gonzales to the hospital classified? Was it Dick Cheney in the Blue Room with the shotgun?"
From Glenn Greenwald we have this gem:
"James Comey's testimony amounts to a statement that — even according to the administration's own loyal DOJ officials — the President ordered still-unknown spying on Americans, and engaged in that spying for a full two-and-a-half-years, that was so blatantly and shockingly illegal that they were all ready to resign over it. And the President's Attorney General then lied to ensure that this episode remain concealed. Mere one-day calls for a Congressional investigation are woefully inadequate here"
A blogger on Daily Kos stated it more succinctly:
Let history record that Kelly O'Donnell of NBC News was the first journalist to ask George W. Bush the question that will end his presidency.
