NY Times Editorial notices

That the GOP fellates Bush no matter what the policy:


Imagine being stopped for speeding and having the local legislature raise the limit so you won't have to pay the fine. It sounds absurd, but it's just what is happening to the 28-year-old law that prohibits the president from spying on Americans without getting a warrant from a judge.

It's a familiar pattern. President Bush ignores the Constitution and the laws of the land, and the cowardly, rigidly partisan majority in Congress helps him out by rewriting the laws he's broken.


It actually sets out the litany of Bush and Congress constantly re-writing the law.

It's as if Clinton had a Democratic majority in 1998 and the latter immediately passed a law making literally "fellating" a President mandatory.

Eight years later, it's just metaphorically -- well maybe, I haven't heard a specific denial from Jeff Gannon yet.
