Gonzales' Mush Mouth [Updated]

Who says things like this?

I know that I did not -- and would not -- ask for the resignation of any U.S. attorney for an improper reason.


"I know that I did not," spoken by someone free of fear or guilt, comes out as "I did not."

"I know that I did not" is mealy-mouthed guiltyese for, "I'm not going to say that I didn't do it because if you find later that I did do it then you can add "Liar" to the charges against me. If you do find out, I'll just say I mis-knew the facts at this time."

Alberto, you're lying. Everybody knows it. You're kids will know it some day. That's just wrong.

UPDATE: A fuller dissection of the mush by a trial laywer.
