1. I can't think of one person with integrity in his administration.

4. It would be a nameless CIA agent
The CIA is
1) Out of the control of the excutive branch
and
2) Pissed at Bush

5. If he hadn't resigned earlier and written a book...
I'd say Paul O'Neill.

11. Uh, no...

Paul was never in the White House much, only a few "one on ones"
with the Pretzeldent, and the cabinet meetings were all scripted
photo ops. Read his book, very depressing that we have such
a below average intellect as "the leader of the free world" (now
that's so wrong in so many ways).

6. the only way they could get a Deep Throat...
Would be if a prosecutor got ahold of somebody and said, "hey, if you don't become my Deep Throat, you're going to jail for a long time..." and they turned.

7. Wouldn't matter, the media wouldn't cover them.
They would judt sell their book and be a footnote in history.

Hell, they'll Wellstone everybody if they have to.

14. There is no one with enough ethics in the Bush administration to be Deep
Throat.

Moreover there is no longer a free press in the United States to act on the existence of a "Deep Throat."

It's over for the United States, much as it was over for the Soviet empire.
