Subject: RE: BS: Bush May Invoke Executive Privilege

In the Britcom "Yes, Minister/Yes, Prime Minister" (which, in addition to being a very funny show, is one of the best telecourses in political science ever offered), Sir Humphrey informs a bewildered Hacker, "The purpose of the Official Secrets Act is not to protect secrets. It's to protect officials!"

Works for me. . . .
