Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) blasted the Bush administration Wednesday, indicating that it is disregarding the law more flagrantly than the Nixon administration.

“Certainly not since I’ve been old enough to vote have we had an administration so willing to ignore the law,” the 67-year-old senator said. “I’ve never known an administration so willing to operate outside the law, even to operate against the law, in violation of the law, as this administration.”
