Paul Begala: : “On October 19 I debated Bob Novak at Emory University. The topic was ‘Civil Liberties in a Time of War.’ I kicked his ass, but that’s not why I mention it. In the debate I predicted that, after the Democrats captured the Congress, Pres. Bush would provoke a Constitutional crisis by refusing to comply with congressional subpoenas….

Novak said I was crazy. It’s beginning to look like I was right.

The only reason George W. Bush would turn loose of White House Counsel Harriett Miers – who gazes upon our president with an adoration and veneration bordering on idolatry – is because he wants a war-time consigliere.” (The Huffington Post thanks to walker)
