House Committee to Meet Tomorrow to Vote on White House Subpoenas

By Paul Kiel - March 20, 2007, 11:51 AM

At 10:15 tomorrow morning, the House Judiciary Committee will vote on whether to issue subpoenas to Alberto Gonzales' chief of staff Kyle Sampson, Karl Rove, former White House counsel Harriet Miers, deputy White House counsel William Kelley, and Rove's aide Scott Jennings, as well as White House and Justice Department documents, which have not been provided to date.

Today, current White House counsel Fred Fielding is expected to notify the congressional committees whether the White House will make Rove and others available. But House Democrats appear determined to hear from White House officials on their terms

Constitutional confrontation, coming up. Go John Conyers!

To reason, indeed, he was not in the habit of attending. His mode of arguing, if it is to be so called, was one not uncommon among dull and stubborn persons, who are accustomed to be surrounded by their inferiors. He asserted a proposition; and, as often as wiser people ventured respectfully to show that it was erroneous, he asserted it again, in exactly the same words, and conceived that, by doing so, he at once disposed of all objections. - Macaulay, "History of England," Vol. 1, Chapter 6, on James II.

Tough to invoke presidential privilege for unelected toadies. I doubt they have a shred of constitutional protection.

MSNBC just reported that the White House offered Rove and Meiers in private, not under oath and no notes allowed. Yeah, sure, Rover. In your dreams.

I guess they intend to testify as honestly as Gonzales did when Specter allowed him to testify without putting him under oath.

If we were to hang all of those who need it, the carpenters would be busy for a year building the gallows, and it would be a mile long, at least. ;0)

Screw the oath. Let's waterboard the freaks. Hey, it's just hijinks. Cheney himself said it was only a little bit of dunking.

Cheney will probably keel over deceased two seconds after he's impeached or indicted. That or be taken hostage while visiting some faraway land.
