1. They can lie under oath too.
They are above the law - at least they think so.

Wow a tie with the dup. posts.

11. Senior Administration Sources
presumably including one with the initials "K.R.," have already let it be known that in the event of a second term, she will not continue to be part of the Administration.

Condi Rice has not had a good week.

3. Rice is that confident in her ability to lie
and get away with it. She's good.

6. Yep, I think they're setting her up to be the fallgal
They know they can't get away with it any longer, she takes the fall, and Georgie boy pardons her after the election regardless.

5. Gman, I don't think she is that good.
She shakes her head when she lies. Her head bobbles. She is a BAD liar!

15. She is about the worst liar on the planet.
Her voice cracks when she lies, which means that it cracks whenever she speaks any more. It is also very hard for her to maintain composure, more than once it looked like she was going to cry.

If she doesn't stray from the script she'll be fine.

7. She has already prepared her answers, and they have nothing to
do with the questions. She can testify truthfully and not say a thing, and that is exactly what she will do. The media will be so enamored with her change of heart that they won't even report that there was no substance.

This was a very smart political move on the part of the WH.

13. Uh, no
The commissioners are not idiots. They will make her answer the questions. If she evades, they'll ask her again. And again. And again. On national television.

8. They are asking for a letter that this doesn't set a legal
precedent. But that's still BS, this isn't the same as being forced in front of Congress to testify under Seperation of Powers.

All the talking heads are going to keep repeating it, "Stand on principle" "we wanted to testify, but were constitutionally prohibited", blah, blah, blah

When is someone in the media actually going to do their job and call this administration what it is - CORRUPT, and willing to lie their way out of anything?

I want to see the heat turned up. I think there is a few members of the 9/11 commission that still want the truth.
