Untitled political post #4

If you haven't had a chance to watch James Comey's testimony before Congress on Tuesday, here it is:

Three observations:
  1. McNulty's testimony a few weeks ago was damaging enough, but this is on another level. I think a few years from now we'll look back on this episode as kind of a tipping point where medium level political appointees began deciding that throwing the Whitehouse under the bus is a better career move than loyalty to the Bush crowd.
  2. The villain of this story is clearly Alberto Gonzales. Please note that he's now leading the agency he tried to strongarm.
  3. Subpoena power is the bomb.
