  His two predecessors -- Ari Fleischer and Scott McClellan and his successor - Dana Perino - each possess individual strengths (respectively: intelligence; awkwardness inviting sympathy; attractive unflappability), but all of them read the job description as including defending the Bush indefensible.

As Marty notes in his post, it is almost literally inconceivable that the ML/GD will be unable successfully to veto the Webb-Clinton bill, even assuming that there are enough Republicans in the Senate who will forego the despicable convention of filibustering all legislation that they are afraid might actually pass because it does, in fact, have strong (but not quite "enough," given the indefensibly apportioned Senate) support of the Senate majority.

" • Paul Campos: Scalia's Death Row Lunacy It would be shocking enough for any justice of the Supreme Court to issue such a truly outrageous opinion, but it is particularly indefensible for Justices Scalia and Thomas, both of whom claim to be practicing Catholics, bound by the teaching of their church, to do moral justice.
