Looking Out... for Whom?

Themselves, of course.

House Majority Leader John Boehner (R-OH), on what Speaker Hastert might do to "protect the interests" of the legislative branch.

Well, I have got to believe at the end of the day it is going to end up across the street at the Supreme Court. I don't see anything short of that.

He continued, later, speaking of the executive branch:

"They take the same oath, so somebody better start reading the Constitution down there."

If Boehner cared about the Constitution and not only his own ass, he'd have delivered that line the second Bush was handed his presidency by the SC. He and Hastert are making noises now because they know if a member of Congress is fair game, so are they, and chances are they have just a few more skeletons in their closets than Jefferson does.
