[Okay, I gotta juxtapose this fresh quote with the one that had originally been scheduled for tomorrow ...]

"I gave in my opening statement, senator, examples where President Washington, President Lincoln, President Wilson, President Roosevelt, have all authorized electronic surveillance on a far broader scale ..." -- United States Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, 2006-02-06, I think. ( Windows Media Player, Quicktime) [Can someone confirm that this clip wasn't doctored? I wasn't by the radio then.] Confirmed -- thanks. (Thanks to razzle for putting it where I'd see it.)

"This administration has finally lost it. If they want to surprise me, senior cabinet officials will have to appear on the White House lawn in duck suits, beating each other with wiffle bats." -- badmagic, 2005-09-09 [Which, I suppose, explains why I can believe that Gonzales could commit a "thinko" regarding George Washington having tools for electronic surveillance, or other folks using electronic communication for Washington to spy upon.]
