Congress complicit in spy scandal?

This interesting WaPo in-house blog/column points out that, yeah, Bush is out of control -- read too in control -- on the NSA spying but that the Bushlings need a complicit Congress to pull this off.

Now, of course, we've got a complicit Paper of No Record, too. And that must have made the Bushlings happy -- until now.

Maybe what's changed is this "open season" mentality, that Bush is weak so let's move in for the kill. After all, he's been squeezing Congress and the press for years. Now it's our turn, they say.

Maybe.
