The school buses were controlled by the school board, not the mayor, ... You can't blame the mayor for that.
I've resisted pronouncing a sentence before guilt is found.
The Senate has a duty to fully and fairly judge Roberts' record and qualifications, but how can it possibly do that when the White House has been sloppy or just plain uncooperative in providing information?
