- and while the executive and its senior appointees can get away with this kind of arrogance and straightforward rejection of accountability, we continue to deserve the Police States we're getting. Because it's our fault we let them get away with it... Not your fault? What have you done in protest? Hmmm?

- Rove did not dispute this. There was good reason for The Architect's quiet: He was out of the country. He had no intention of appearing before Congress, and he had sent the panel the equivalent of a doctor's note - from no less a medical authority than White House counsel Fred Fielding - saying he did not have to respond to the congressional subpoena. So lawmakers decided to pull out one of the most feared weapons in their arsenal: the empty-chair stunt. They printed up a name card for "Mr. Karl Rove" and displayed it on the witness table. They put out a glass of cold water with ice, and pointed the microphone toward an empty wooden armchair.I like it.Damn I hope they continue with a plethora of investigations, even after Bush is gone from office. Surely he can still do time! (he won't, but I can hope)
