Taking One for the Team, When He Could Remember

By Dana Milbank
Friday, March 30, 2007; Page A02

Quote:
Kyle Sampson, the former chief of staff to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, was in his fourth hour testifying yesterday about the firing of federal prosecutors….

"I can't pretend to know or remember every fact that may be of relevance," he warned at the start -- and he wasn't kidding. He used the phrase "I don't remember" a memorable 122 times.

It may have been a tactical effort to limit his risk of perjury, but Sampson displayed the recall of a man who recently fell off a ladder.

Good to know that the people working in government have a memory span comparable to that of a goldfish.

Lemme guess. He also says his "heart and his best intentions" still tell him he didn't do anything wrong, even though the facts say he did...
