Of course the next question ought to be directed at Shrub: "Do you feel it is appropriate to continue as President if you can not exercise effective management control over your own staff?"
Still, if they can manage to dump as much blame as possible on Rice then he may yet be able to squirm out of it. Republicans seem to be remarkably good at that.
The White House had originally refused to let Ms Rice testify, arguing that she was in a privileged position as a presidential adviser and that it would set the wrong precedent.
The precedent that the executive might possibly be held accountable for their own actions? Heaven forbid!
