He's perfect for the job. No conscience or soul whatsoever.
For those who haven't seen the whole thing, this is what Tony Snow
wrote in 1998:

"Evidently, Mr. Clinton wants to shield virtually any communications
that take place within the White House compound on the theory that
all such talk contributes in some way, shape or form to the
continuing success and harmony of an administration. Taken to its
logical extreme, that position would make it impossible for citizens
to hold a chief executive accountable for anything. He would have a
constitutional right to cover up.
"Chances are that the courts will hurl such a claim out, but it will
take time.
"One gets the impression that Team Clinton values its survival more
than most people want justice and thus will delay without qualm. But
as the clock ticks, the public's faith in Mr. Clinton will ebb away
for a simple reason: Most of us want no part of a president who is
cynical enough to use the majesty of his office to evade the one
thing he is sworn to uphold -- the rule of law."
