The Ashcroft Moment

Bush was asked about the call placed to the hospital trying to take advantage of a very ill John Ashcroft. Josh Marshall has some video of it, and this comment:

The funny thing about this dodge is that the president is saying not only that the nature of the program is highly classified and must be kept secret, which may be true, but that his apparent order for Gonzales and Card to go squeeze the semi-concsious John Ashcroft is also highly classified and must be kept secret. Somehow I just don't get that one. The president's refusal to answer tells the tale. The president gave the order and even placed the call, as James Comey all but told us yesterday.


....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
