I am getting so tired of crying for my country.  -sm

From DailyKos.com:

I was watching ... and I had to do a double-take.  White House deputy political director Scott Jennings, sitting there not answering Sen. Patrick Leahy's questions, was rather expected.  But anyone who watched this little segment (and has a pulse) had to leave it with his or her jaw on the floor.  If this doesn't illustrate how desperately we need a new administration to the American people, I'm not sure what could.

...This isn't an exact transcript, but it's the functional equivalent.  It's the sound bite everyone should hear.  The video ought to be available later at MSNBC.com.

SENATOR LEAHY: I'm just asking you what role you have.  I'm just asking you what you do.  Let's not be too contemptuous of this committee.  The American taxpayers pay your salary.  You work for the American people.  I'm just asking you what you DO.

JENNINGS: (leans over to consult with Mark Paoletta, his attorney) This falls under the terms of executive privilege, and respectfully I must decline to answer that question at this time.
