The President looks on in puzzlement as Mukasey talks and breathes without an earphone.

Michael Bernard "Barney"[1] Mukasey is an Orthodox Jew who was for a time the U.S. Attorney General.

Most people who exist know that Alberto Gonzales really sucked as an Attorney General. However, in a classically "Bush" move, Mr. President nominated this guy in 2007. Mukasey consistently claimed that the process of forcefully strapping people to a board, tilting them backwards, placing a cloth over their head, and pouring water down their throat and nose to the point of near suffocation is not torture. Even if they did it to him. What, you expected Bush to change in terms of having a torture advocate in that position? C'mon now.

Remember... He's watching...
