Quote of the Day: Bush Crimes


"Bush is saying 'I'm the president' and, on a range of issues -- from war to torture to illegal surveillance -- 'I can do as I like.' This administration needs to be slapped down and held accountable for actions that could change the shape of our democracy."

--Michael Ratner, Washington Post, 3/24/06
