The never ending Leaky Leahy circus continues….
“The Senate Judiciary Committee subpoenaed the White House and Vice President Dick Cheney’s office Wednesday for documents relating to President Bush’s warrant-free eavesdropping program.
Also named in subpoenas signed by committee Chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., were the Justice Department and the National Security Council.
The committee wants documents that might shed light on internal squabbles within the administration over the legality of the program, said a congressional official speaking on condition of anonymity because the subpoenas had not been made public.
Leahy’s committee authorized the subpoenas previously as part of its sweeping investigation into how much influence the White House exerts over the Justice Department and its chief, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales.
The probe, in its sixth month, began with an investigation into whether administration officials ordered the firings of eight federal prosecutors, for political reasons.”
Which is the only reason Leahy and his pals have to pull this stunt as they found no evidence of wrong doing in their cooked up AG scandal, so now let’s go off on another tangent and waste more taxpayer dollars so that Leaky and his pals can satisfy that their collective dementia.
Bet this that the White House is going to tell Leahy to glue a stick to a chair and sit on it (ungreased), so that this farse will end up in the courts as a classic Executive vs. Judicial branch fight.
