Behind Closed Doors

Alberto Gonzales testified before the House Intel Committee about his middle-of-the-night pressure visit to John Ashcroft's hospital bedside yesterday, but we're not allowed to know what he said, because the issue of why he was there is classified. At any rate, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Silvestre Reyes (D-Texas) was satisfied with Gonzo's answers.

"When there are issues of national security at stake, I think certainly one should not question the motivation of individuals," Reyes told reporters. "I'm willing to accept the rationale behind it."

Not question motives when national security is at stake? That's a GOP talking point, isn't it? Senator [ooops] Congressman Reyes is a Democrat. You remember Senator [ooops] Congressman Reyes, don't you?


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

  1. Reyes may be a Democrat, but I'm guessing he's not a senator, what with being Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee.

    Or is this one of those Rudy things? Reyes is America's senator, maybe?

    i have a tendency to type senator every time i'm posting about any congressman. this time, i didn't wake up when i was doing it.
