This Should Make Steve Happy
CNN breaking news ticker: Attorney General and FBI chief indicated they might resign in showdown over search of congressman's office, sources tell CNN.
Hell, that will make me happy, too, but I think it's misguided.

[Update: there's a Times article from yesterday about Abu G threatening to resign if Justice couldn't keep the documents from the raid. Not clear if the CNN stuff is just old or a new twist.]

There isn't one of them with enough honor to resign. This is just a political ploy, a form of blackmail.
