Bush Says "Bite Me!"

Okay, well, not exactly. But close enough.

“It was a shameful act for someone to disclose this important program in a time of war. The fact that we’re discussing this program is helping the enemy,” he said at the White House event.

UPDATE: Newsweek's spin on this:
This will all play out eventually in congressional committees and in the United States Supreme Court. If the Democrats regain control of Congress, there may even be articles of impeachment introduced. Similar abuse of power was part of the impeachment charge brought against Richard Nixon in 1974.

Uh, no, Nixon was trying to protect his own ass. Bush is trying to protect the US. And that includes the sorry SOBs at Newsweak. (Error intentional.)
