Lehrer, Shields and Brooks

On the NewsHour tonight, the three musketeers ridicule Alberto Gonzales and seemed to regard Jim Comey as a hero. But Comey seems petty and insecure. Otherwise he would not have raced to the hospital to see John Ashcroft before Card and Gonzales and he surely would not have felt the need to tattle to the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Brooks defended Paul Wolfowitz a little but Shields blamed Wolfowitz for his World Bank problems and even suggested that World Bank employees are underpaid, which is silly judging from news coverage.

The conversations between these three are becoming less and less informative.
