Bush administration fears an investigation

White House Working to Avoid Wiretap Probe Originally Bush, Alberto Gonzalez, Andrew Card and their ilk stuck to their story that no laws were broken during their illegal wire-tapping of American citizens and they were ready to battle it out with Congress. That was until they realized they didn't have the votes to stop an investigation by the Intelligence Committee and now all of sudden they're looking for a compromise. Congress should not compromise and they should appoint an independent counsel, independent of Gonzalez's department since he should be an eventual defendant if the law is properly followed. Congratulations to two of the very few Republicans with integrity, Olympia Snowe and Chuck Hagel who chose their constitutional responsibility over party politics. You don't see that very often from Republicans and it's refreshing to see.
