I've been reading far too much Slate recently. I probably feel like a lot of Republicans did during the leadup to the Clinton impeachment debacle. I just cannot believe that people aren't more pissed about the whole "White House lies about the war" thing. Back then GOP members were going apeshit over Clinton's blow-job and his on the stand equivocations, and the rest of the country yawned and threw them out of office in 1998 midterm elections (bye-bye Newt).

Now Bush lies to the Congress and the Nation during his constitutionally mandated report the Congress, then equivocates about whether or not it was lie, admits it was a lie -- but not his lie (It was the Brits! The CIA got it wrong!), claims it was a short lie so it doesn't really count, and I get the feeling the country doesn't really care. Oh well...
