"I serve at the pleasure of the President"
Somehow it was more truthful and authentic when Leo McGarry said it.

1. He has the look
of a man who is 24 to 48 hours from resigning.

6. or jumping out of a 15-story building
He knows where the bodies are buried and he looks awfully soft to serve prison time.

10. That baby face and voice would make him fresh meat, but he'll never spend a minute in the pen
Even in one of those country club min. security facilities.

16. You noticed that too! He really didn't have his normal smirky,
smarmy grin today. It was on when I got back from shopping, andinstead ofgetting the grroceries out of the car, I immediately sat dow to see what he ws saying, because hr really looked different today. I honestly thought he was announcing his resignation. If this mess continues, I bet he quits soon.

18. I think he may
be aware of things that will be reported on in the next 24-48 hours. Every bit of the arrogant, cocky, over-confident attitude that he has displayed in the past was gone today.

3. I can not believe he is not going to resign.
What a bunch of crap. You all serve at the will of the American people and we want you gone Mr. Attorney General. NOW.

8. NOPE--"we" want him held accountable, and prosecuted.
Resigning is too easy, and lets all the shit continue.

15. I guess you are right.
I just get so sick of them always using a "fall guy" to take the blame and then they seem to get away with everything. I just want to see this whole thing blow up. It is unraveling at the seams, as they say, but ever so slowly!

19. The "blowup" will be bigger if they all stubbornly hold on to their superiority!
Yes, it's slow, and I want to fast-forward to the happy ending.

But, we can't afford any more Iran/Contra-sweeping-everything-under-the-rug, and letting it come back later with a vengence. This country couldn't survive another bout of these shitheads!

Nope, it's going to have to be a thorough up-rooting, and that will happen only with them being arrogant to the max, and getting caught with their GODDAMNED PANTS DOWN!

But, please, don't get the impression that I'm mad as hell at all this shit! :nuke:

7. So get down on your knees and give the Prez some service!
This guy has got it all wrong. He's supposed to be serving the AMERICAN PEOPLE.

Got it Alberto? The AMERICAN PEOPLE are the forgotten entity here.

We are the ones you are supposed to be serving, not Bush.

12. He is breathing hard, tripping over his tongue and stammering all over
the place. He's dead and hasn't been buried yet.

Very weak appearance overall.
