"Making Your Bones" in the Bush administration

Jonathan Turley has a provocative piece in the Chicago Tribune,

Despite the vocal surprise, Hayden's nomination is actually all too predictable. While alleged violations of federal laws have long been viewed as a negative resume item, it doesn't appear to be a problem for Bush's inner circle.

From his very first appointments, Bush appeared inclined toward officials who appear willing to treat the law as a mere technicality.

They're all there, Elliot Abrams, John Poindexter, Otto Reich, John Negroponte even Al Gonzales and the center of the piece Michael Hayden. He also throws in a Sopranos reference which will help this make the rounds. If you find yourself looking for something to read.....

Turley was interviewed on Olberman tonight, and the site TruthStream.org has the video up already.
