4. They'll preserve the illusion of legality . . .

By whatever poppycock Gonzales comes up with. They'll pound the lies about "Carter and Clinton did it" until they become conventional wisdom. They'll say "he was just protecting the nation" -- and the nation will let him slide.

Not to disagree with you that this is dire, but I do believe they'll maintain that no laws were broken -- and make it stick, at least in a legalistic sense.

Consequences? All bets are off for all future presidents. Congress is spavined, the courts are stacked, and the media is completely owned by the ruling class. It's a dark road to hell.

But . . . Bush WILL leave office in January 2009.
