Editor:
Your editorial cartoon showing Condi Rice is quite confused. Are you telling your viewers there is no distinction between a national security adviser appearing for a television or radio interview and appearing before a congressional committee under oath? Certainly you know and understand the difference. You are assuming that the editor has a basic understanding of the Constitutional doctrine of "separation of powers".
That's a lot to assume nowadays.

The cynical me says they understand the issue but are lazy or purposefully distorting the issues. But, I might be inclined to go with your version.
