"I believe the questions he's [Mukasey] been asked are unfair," Bush said in an Oval Office session with reporters. "He's been asked to give opinions on a program - or techniques of a program - on which he has not been briefed."

And we all know the reason he's hemming and hawing isn't based on his understanding of the law as much as his understanding of the term "cover your ass" as impressed on him by the administration.
