Do you honestly expect people in this administration NOT TO COMMENT on these accusations?

I don't think it is a proper use of the official White House spokesman to deal with matters that happened while both Bush and Cheney were in the private sector. Your opinion may vary.

You and Turly would be here, talking about the "scandal" (and if Turley doesn't think it's a SCANDAL, why did he use the word???), raising holy hell because "the administration is stone walling."

Uh, Howlin, Turley never used that phrase in the article.

Then why is it in the title?

I think it is. The "matters" would never have surfaced if Bush and Cheney weren't heading the executive branch.

As I said above, this is politics, and I don't have any problem using the political people to answer them.

I also didn't have a problem with Mike McCurry handling questions about Whitewater for Clinton.

You simply can't allow these accusations to go unanswered!
