I honestly am not on this due to partisan feelings. I don't think this is something that should bring Bush down and that people who think he will be kicked out due to some sort of malfeasance are misguided.
What I do think about this episode, is that it looks bad, it was bad, people were jailed, the press was made a scapegoat due to a lie, and a coverup ensued. I think it all came about due to small, petty administration thugs who suffer from grand egos.
