"Bush felt like he didn't have to follow any rules" says the Secretary.

.
"He had a campaign he wanted to work on, and so he just went and did that," she says.

Ha.

Spin that Rove.

[merbex]

1. He did what he wanted to do

He wanted to work on a campaign ;he did

[Lex]

2. She doesn't sound like she thought that was very cool

that Bush did like he wanted to do.

[merbex]

6. He 's GWB don't you know _ as F Scott Fitzgerald said

the rich are different

Entitled

[MissB]

3. And on another webpage that I post to, someone thinks it's okay

to do just that. Just walk away from your obligation. No biggie. No penalty.

[Lex]

12. Republicans think it's okay if W does it.

But remember when they nearly crucified Clinton for getting out of 'Nam by going to school instead.

[Nlighten1]

4. But then...

he didn't even work on the campaign...

[NYC Liberal]

5. Apparently, he still feels that way.

[Lex]

7. "The information in those memos IS CORRECT."

Hoo boy.

She did type memos with information JUST LIKE THAT, but just not those memos!

[RoyalWickedness]

15. Hmmm....

wonder if maybe SHE kept a personal CYA file somewhere.... Oh wouldn't that just be SWEET?

[merbex]

8. Did not obey order to take physical

A BIG NO NO

[Lex]

9. "Was Bush ORDERED to take the flight physical? YES."

She says "It was a BIG NO-NO to refuse to take one. I can't remember anyone REFUSING to do so."

11. Someone saw Killian's person papers and then dummied

up the memos to reflect what was in those papers.

But that person didn't want to be known as the person who did it and so that person created the memos.

In other words, whoever it was wanted the info to get out, but didn't want it to be known who did it.

[dogman]

13. That's certainly the B$$$ we've seen.

He is truly a POS.

[BeyondGeography]

14. He's the kind of guy who might start a unilateral war

Or stonewall the 9/11 Commission.

International law, the will of the people, the right of the public to know the truth, pre-existing treaty agreements. Those "rules" don't apply to him either, do they?

[Lex]

16. Yes, also the Geneva Convention doesn't apply either

or any other silly "rule."

Just don't bother Smirk with the rules.
