1. The strategy of a liar....
To answer a question with another question, which puts the onus for response onto the questioner.

If he was being honest he would have made a declarative statement.

Liar, liar.

4. "Yeah, an' when I briefed Congress, nobody objected."

5. How many in Congress did Dubya brief (a few)?
Besides, the law does not say he can brief a few in Congress, instead of going through the FISA Court. Dubya must go through the FISA Court, so that there will be a record and oversight on exactly who Dubya is spying on and why.

Without FISA, political opponents of Dubya are fair game and nobody will ever know. Now there is a reason for Dubya to evade the FISA Court.

8. Because you need accomplices to throw under the wheels?
I don't know why you were briefing Congress, George. Oddly enough, that's not the question here, is it? But since you're in an answerin' mood, I have a few more questions for you to ponder, if you're willing.
