Anyone who thinks the BFEE is going to allow Brownie to rat out The Chimp is delusional. BushCo has a number of options, from simply crying "privilege," which while probably not legally relevent, would delay the proceedings while legal opinions are sought. Another likely scenerio is another attack or "scare" of some sort. Of course it will be obvious, of course KO will make fun of it and point it out, but THEY DON'T CARE. They know they have no cred, they don't need it...they only need to stop Brownie from testifying. Brownie's limo could burst into flames on the way to the hearings. Again, of course everyone will immediately blame Bush, but again, THEY DON'T CARE. They have effectively put a lid on every damning story to come out against them. We all know he's a criminal, but so what? If the press isn't reporting it, Middle America doesn't know about it. All one has to do is look back at every other "scandal" we were certain would bring down Bush. Nothing touches him, and it's not because he has Reagan-esque Teflon charm. It's because his administration is run by a very "influential" band of thugs.
The story tomorrow will be big, but I'd bet it won't include Brownie at the hearings.
