So Scott McClellan has been jousting with reporters lately over the Abramoff scandal. (Oh, for the halcyon days when James Guckert "Jeff Gannon" crouched in front of the podium, happy to oblige Scotty...) McClellan is refusing to discuss "staff-level meetings", yet says that if "you have anything specific," he'd "be glad to take a look into it."
Okay, then. What about May 9, 2001? Did Abramoff meet with Bush?
If there's nothing to hide, then the Bush White House should release the information reporters seek, right? After all, they've been the ones telling us repeatedly that if you keep your nose clean (and don't forget, they're checking up on you), the government will keep you safe from Big Bad Terrorist Guy.
And where are all the Republicans that were baying for Clinton's blood a few years back? Aren't they interested in the "rule of law"? Aren't they interested in ethical, appropriate behavior? Don't they care about whether laws were broken? Why are they looking the other way?
Bring the light.
