So sad that this country has inflicted this president on itself.

President Bush personally blocked a Justice Department investigation of the anti-terror eavesdropping program that intercepts Americans’ international calls and e-mails, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales said Tuesday.

And from yesterday’s news, but relevant taken together:

“See, the irony is that what they need to do is get Syria to get Hezbollah to stop doing this shit,” Bush says, “and it’s over.”

I say, we do appear to have a president completely out of control.
