"The President can't immunize illegality"

That was kind of an interesting opinion for the next Attorney General of the United States to make. Actually, it's not interesting at all, but in the context of the Bush Administration...

It was regarding FISA. He said he hasn't really been briefed fully on the program. What? Has Bush talked to this guy recently? It's kind of astounding to me that he wouldn't have been briefed, but perhaps his security clearance hasn't gone through.

Mukasey is saying all the right things here.

Specter just asked if Mukasey would be willing to resign if the President tried to violate the Constitution. "The options are to talk him out of it or to leave." This simply doesn't seem like a Bush Administration appointee.
