The Rest of the Story

Remember when James Comey testified regarding the attorney firings? He's testifying again. This time he's talking about the secret program to spy on U.S. citizens. Remember that he refused to give the okay on it when Ashcroft was in the hospital (prompting Bush to start referring to him as 'Cuomey')? And remember that Andrew Card and Torture Gonzales went to Ashcroft's bedside at the hospital to try to override Comey?

Well, it was a far, far better story than that. Read it here at TPM Muckraker.

And I'll give John Ashcroft (whom I've blasted in the past) his props on this one. He stood with Comey, prepared to resign over it if necessary.
