The 9/11 commission, which Condeleezza Rice went before last week, is so desperate to hear President George W. Bush's version of events leading up to that terrible day that it has agreed to three of the president's conditions.

President Bush has said he's happy to appear before the commission, provided a) the session is behind closed doors, b) that Vice-President Dick Cheney appears with him and c) that neither of them be under oath.

Now, on the face of it, that might sound pretty outrageous. That the president of the United States doesn't want to have to answer any of the commission's questions before the glare of the cameras, that no one in his administration feels it's safe to let him answer questions without Dick Cheney at his side, and that the two of them shouldn't have to be bound by some silly oath that requires them to tell the truth.

You might ask, what the (only one possible expletive here) was the commission thinking? What good is testimony from either one of these guys, if they aren't even under oath, for crying out loud?
