Constitutional crisis

The U.S. Constitution is in crisis. The president has placed himself and his closest advisors above the law, raising partisanship to a new level and allowing the White House to function as a small-time mafia family in the process.

Read this and this and this and this. (Only a Washington insider would make the case that Michael Kinsley makes today, shifting the discussion back from perjury and cover-up to a culture of leaks, finding a way to equate Clinton’s sex life with the vengeful activity of an administration run amok and the president’s willingness to hold his cronies to a separate standard than the rest of America and the world.)

I think he needs to take Keith Olbermann’s advice and resign.
