FBI Chief Disputes Gonzales On Spying
Mueller Describes Internal Debate

FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III yesterday contradicted the sworn testimony of his boss, Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales, by telling Congress that a prominent warrantless surveillance program was the subject of a dramatic legal debate within the Bush administration.

Mueller's testimony appears to mark the first public confirmation from a Bush administration official that the National Security Agency's Terrorist Surveillance Program was at issue in an unusual nighttime visit by Gonzales to the hospital bedside of then-Attorney General John D. Ashcroft, who was under sedation and recovering from surgery.

The throwing of the gauntlet.
It's the beginning of the end....it's surely coming....
Leahy has already suggested investigation of possible perjury by Gonzales.
Yay!

For principles. To teach him and everyone following him a lesson.
Besides, it'll be a hoot to watch.

Same reason they tried Clinton in '99 Even though he was done in Jan '01. If it is found that it's the right thing to do, than it needs to be done.

Indeed.....the long march toward impeaching and incarcerating the Clinton Mafia began in the 1990s, and continues today. In the end, the Christian People of America will triumph, and imprison the Clintons for life, at hard labor.

You seem delusional, to suggest the Clintons' missteps even remotely approaches the high crimes and misdemeanors committed by the Bush/Cheney Mafia....
Christian People of America? Is that a non-profit "religious" organization? If so, then their collective voice is extremely limited due to laws and regulations separating matters of Church and State (Thank God!)
I'm a Christian...and a citizen of the US...does that mean I "automatically belong" to the organization? If so...I move that the group silence itself, in order not to appear intolerant of "other" groups (the Islamic People of America, the Buddhist People of America, the "GLBT" People of America, the Baha'is, etc....),because there are other bona fide Americans other than just Christians, this being "America" and all. Geez.

I could care less about what others think...if you can't do the time, don't do the crime...we need impeachment...we need cleansing....we need to remove the stench of this administration....and it is the foulest stench.

Don't be idiotic....Clinton lying about having sex, in no way, is comparable to the gross crimes and excesses of Bush and Co. Are you mad?

@aaronssongs,

So what your saying is it didn't go through Congress or a court? Then your reaching. Opinion doesn't cut it, judgment does. So do you have any thing from SCOTUS that would back you opinion?

What crimes? Has he been charged? Where are the court records? Was he convicted? I can prove Clinton lied, you prove Bush did!?

Uh, I'm not falling for your spin and "slash and burn" tactics...Impeachment is on the way...mark my words...and even if it's not...history will be foreboding for this president...he'll be remembered in "infamy"...and mark those words. Sorry. No cigar. Truth doesn't need for you to believe it to be true.

You like that word stench - have a look at Hillary - she belongs in federal prison in my devout opinion.

Whaaat? If you could express ideas and concepts succinctly, perhaps you would be understood....since you can't, I'll refrain from commenting, as I wouldn't want to misspeak, or be misunderstood. Hmmmm....word to the wise.
