KING GEORGE AND THE SUBPOENAS March 23, 2007
Posted by wmmbb in Category to be ascribed.trackback
Or is it the shootout at the OK Corral? As far as I can tell the “liberal-biased media” are calling for Bush aide, Carl Rove and others to appear under oath before the Senate Judiciary Committee and they are calling in unison for the resignation of Attorney-General, Alberto Gonzales. The president is evoking “executive privilege”, which taken to its conclusion would create a constitutional crisis to be resolved by the Supreme Court. This matter has arisen from the firing of eight US attorneys, lawyers appointed by the president, and has involved an unprecedented link of numerous emails from the Department of Justice.
Just minutes ago, The New York Times reported:
The Senate Judiciary Committee today authorized the issuing of subpoenas that would summon Karl Rove and several other top Bush administration officials to Capitol Hill to testify under oath about the dismissals of eight federal prosecutors.
The step, taken on a voice vote of the committee, came a day after a House Judiciary subcommittee passed a similar measure.
Last minute compromise anyone? A “surge” perhaps?
