What's worse than sanctioning torture? Lying about getting the Guv'ner off of jury duty

...notes TPM: "In our up-is-down political world, authoring memos which for the first time put the United States government on record sanctioning torture probably can't get you nixed for Attorney General. But fibbing about your role in covering up one of the president's DUIs just might. Newsweek's Isikoff is on the case."

Dept of Silver Lining: Poke around in a Dubya story and you'll usually find something cosmically ridiculous. In this case: Mr Gonzalez's argument - "argument" - that the Governor ought to be excused from jury duty to avoid the potential conflict of interest that would arise if he were ever faced with pardoning the defendant! (Let's not forget that this was a case of DWI) Bush? Pardon? Pardon?
