Bush Fought The Law, and... result to be determined
Contempt of court - it's so hot right now. First Judith Miller's "principles" would not allow her to disclose who in the Bush Administration was trying to slime the Wilson family. Now, a federal judge has ORDERED the Bush Administration to release certain pictures taken at Abu Ghraib, and our government is refusing to abide by the court's order.
Yep. Simply refusing. No legal grounds for it. Just decided they don't want to.
UPDATE- the NYT runs a correction. They dropped the ball on this one.
Hat Tip - Soup or Star?

The arrogance!
Corrected fellas. Thanks for the tip. NYT's mistake.
And as for the Delay thing, that was my mistake. I overestimated the GOP's class, and thought they'd boot him. A mistake I'll not make again.
Well, Tee-oh-Dee, you're actually part right on that one. I thought that when the public spotlight was focused on DeLay's sleazy pay-to-play politics, the GOP would scurry away from him and let him twist slowly in the wind. They didn't. Why? Easy --
The majority of the righties in Washington have sucked mightily at the teat of the DeLay cash cow, and will not remove their lips until they are indicted. Did I expect more from the GOP? Actually, yes. Perhaps your point is that I should have have expected these folks to lick the very bottom of the barrell. Point taken.
