Newsflash for Sen Kay Bailey Hutchinson re: "technicalities":

FITZGERALD: I'll be blunt.

That talking point won't fly. If you're doing a national security investigation, if you're trying to find out who compromised the identity of a CIA officer and you go before a grand jury and if the charges are proven -- because remember there's a presumption of innocence -- but if it is proven that the chief of staff to the vice president went before a federal grand jury and lied under oath repeatedly and fabricated a story about how he learned this information, how he passed it on, and we prove obstruction of justice, perjury and false statements to the FBI, that is a very, very serious matter.

2. The GOP Texans have been arrogant so long

they don't realize they are not God. Absolute power equals absolute corruption. That is Texas, and W, DeLay, Hutchinson, and all the rest. The culture of corruption.
