Rep. Maxine Waters just gave a clinic on how to interrogate a stubborn witness. Clearly, Rep. Waters was fed up with all the non-responsive noise from the attorney general today, and used her time to bracket him as much as possible. “What do you have to tell us today?” she thundered in outrage. “The buck stops with you.” Gonzales, not surprisingly, wriggled on the hook until Rep. Waters’s time expired, and managed once again to avoid giving direct answers. The exchange, however, was the most important of the day thus far. Waters didn’t get her answers, but the absence of those answers was answer enough. It was an impressive, and important, display. -William Rivers Pitt Â
