A House Judiciary subcommittee approved today the first in what is expected to be an avalanche of subpoenas to Bush administration officials. They will likely explore corruption and mismanagement allegations on everything from pre-war Iraq intelligence to the mishandling of the response to Hurricane Katrina.
The first round of subpoenas concern the recent controversial firings by the Bush administration of seven U.S. attorneys, some of whom were pursuing public corruption cases against Republican members of Congress.
The House Judiciary subcommittee on commercial and administrative law, chaired by Rep. Linda Sanchez (D-Calif.), approved subpoenas requiring four former U.S. attorneys to appear at a subcommittee hearing next Tuesday. The former U.S. attorneys include Carol Lam of California, David Iglesias of New Mexico, H.E. Cummins III of Arkansas, and John McKay of Washington state. The subcommittee approved the subpoenas by voice vote; no Republican lawmakers were present.
Tuesday’s hearing will consider a bill by Rep. Howard Berman (D-Calif.) that would reverse a new Patriot Act provision allowing the attorney general to appoint federal prosecutors without Senate confirmation through the duration of the Bush administration.
Democrats have come to the defense of several dismissed prosecutors, in particular Lam and Cummins of Arkansas. They have noted that Lam was leading the probe of ex-Rep. Randy "Duke" Cunningham (R-Calif.), while Cummins was removed to make room for a former aide to White House senior adviser Karl Rove. Other U.S. attorneys, including those in Nevada and Arizona, were acting on corruption charges against GOP lawmakers before their resignations were requested.
Iglesias, a New Mexico U.S. attorney, asserted at a press conference yesterday that he was fired for purely political reasons. He also charged that prior to the November elections, two federal elected officials asked him to speed up the probes of local politicians.
Democrats, such as Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), have expressed outrage over the firings. She and Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) have demanded to see the attorneys’ performance evaluations.
The White House has denied that the attorneys were fired for anything other than performance-related issues. And Republican lawmakers, such as Sen. Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.), have argued that Democrats are making up a controversy where none exists.
After the vote on the subpoenas, Sanchez took exception to the White House’s assertions that they can fire the attorneys because they are "at will" employees.
There are several exceptions when an "at-will" employee cannot be fired, Sanchez asserted, such as sex or race discrimination.
"There are several public policy reasons why we don’t fire people," she said. "Are these people being [fired] because they’re doing their jobs and they’re doing them to well? Is this an ideological purge?"
She went on to stress the importance of a judiciary branch that is separate and independent from the executive branch.
"When the executive branch is interfering in the justice system—in other countries we call that corruption," she said. "It’s very troubling to me that there seems to be this undercurrent."
House Democratic Caucus Chairman Rahm Emanuel (Ill.) also weighed today, with a speech on the House floor.
"So this Administration either originally hired incompetent attorneys in the first place, or hired competent U.S. Attorneys, but incompetently fired them. Which is it?" he asked. "Many Americans believe these U.S. Attorneys are not being fired because they failed to go after public corruption, but because they did and were successful."
The Justice Department did not respond to a request for comment by press time. It has opposed a Senate bill similar to Berman's. A senior administration official also previously told The Hill that Democrats were trying to create a scandal where there isn't one.
"This sounds to me a little more like Democrats trying to play politics and use the S-word than it does trying to obtain substantive information," the official said.

What a ton of BS. This is what a lot of concerned folks were predicting. The Democrats if they got in power would try and paralize the goverment so nothing can be done and cost the taxpayers millions for BS. That just pisses you off. We have a bunch of traitors serving in Congress when we are at war.

the demos didn't use their check or their balance when they voted to continue funding the iraq thing.
they had the power of the purse, and don't have the kahunas to use it.
since when is firing a lawyer have to do with the branches of government? . Is there a difference?
Is a lawyer part of the judiciary, when they lead investigations?

I see that I’m being tag teamed here. Most of those charges stem from the firing of incompetent attorneys for the Justice Dept. If you are a lazy attorney or otherwise not suitable and you get fired then it is political. Or I’m sure some have made frivols charges against some Republicans so if they get canned for their sorry performance then they can say I was fired because I went after some Republicans. Since when can’t the administration hire and fire it’s on employees. Congress has no business interfering with the running of the executive branch. This is ridicules. The president doesn’t interfere with how Congress is run.

LOL What a croc of sheyt. Let them have their subpoena power.Let's see what they can do with it.
The dems express outrage over the dismissal of attorneys the administration is entitled to fire, yet every U.S. Attorney, all 90+ of them were dismissed days after Bill Clinton took the oath of office with the exact same excuse provided.
You also might want to take a look at the list of pardons of career convicts ole' slick willie allowed.
It's hard to affect real results with subpoena power when we have an administration that is totally opposite from the preceding one, where subpoena's were destined to yield results.
I could hire a german shepherd to subpoena Clinton's old admin and come away with a large conviction rate.
The republicans were able to get the worst president in the history of this country to testify under oath where he lied like a Persian rug in an attempt to cover the corruption in his administration.
The republicans were successful in impeaching slick willie where he lied about the details of his relationships with several women. Genny Flowers, Monica Lewinsky, Linda Tripp, etc.
The republicans used their subpoena power very well, thank you.
The democrats will get from their subpoenas exactly what they've gotten when trying to get into the White House for the last 8 years...zilch.
If dumbasses like greer are adamant about defending Clinton's oval office no-sex blowjob trysts with a borderline child, they'll have no problem minimizing his consistent lying under oath about it as well.
I mean, if it was such a non-issue, why didn't the president just admit his transgressions??
Makes one wonder what really happened to Vince Foster as well.
And then there's Clinton permitting China to develop anti-radar and missile technology, Whitewater, Filegate, Reno's Chinagate cover-up, the Ron Brown plane purposely diverted off course to kill its passenger when indictments were pending on Clinton-linked finance scandal,a bullet hole in Ron Brown's head prior to the crash, fake Clinton tears (private video footage of his instant change of demeanor from laughing to crying when Television cameras turned on him) ,Brown's office ransacked for files by Commerce staff immediately after his death, Clinton using the IRS to attack and intimidate political enemies, Clinton staffers and admin downloading gay, bestial, teen sex videos, jamming the White House firewall system, the Justice Department used to terrorize American citizens and Elian Gonzalez, and the list goes on and on and on and on.
One needs only to perform a google search with two words....Clinton and corruption to see how easy it was for subpoena power to affect real results.
You libtards should not even fix your pieholes to mention the word subpoena.
It just brings all that Clinton garbage right back into focus and shows the contrasts in the fundamental integrity issues.
You clowns make GWB look like the pope when you mention the word subpoena.

How in the heck do subpoenas equate to helping our county and stopping the war in Iraq? They don't. Period. It's just the same ole same ole when there is a change in the majority. Status Quo. Why should we be surprised. It certainly isn't the first time we've been lied to by politicians.
I thought that Ms Pelosi vowed for a change?
Yeah, right. A change would be going forward by ANYONE instead of pointing fingers at EVERYONE. I'm almost to the point of saying that they ALL suck--there is absolutely no honor. Especially among thieves. And I'm not talking about the Republican party. They all need to have a rectal thumbectomy and start doing the job they are getting paid for.

Lemme' chop greers asinine rhetoric down and stack it up next to his cordwood full of crap :eek:
8/01 defense bulletin was no different from any other bulletin the president received. The intel was assesed and filed.
Had a competent president been in office pre-GWB, there is no doubt that AQ would not have been in a position to attack. Clinton's admin is directly responsible for 9/11 and everyone knows it. They even enlisted Sandy Berger to hide incriminating classified documents in his shoe to suppress evidence that directly incriminates the previous admin. Reality bites boys.
Furthermore, the current admin, by being proactive, has done a decidedly better job handling gathering threats.
The proofs in the pudding. No attacks on American soil in 6 years, terrorist leaders and their henchmen killed, imprisoned and brought to justice.
What results did the previous admin achieve in the battle against threats to our nation?

This is why America voted out the Neocons glen. Of course this Congress is going to do what the American people want and make sure Dumbya cant screw Americans over anymore. Time to pay the piper. OK - Tin-Dim-Wit... thanks for the head's up. Now we can have Democratic hypocritical liars screw Americans over for a few years. It's been awhile, so it's time to pay the piper. I better start my money-shuffling Carbon Credit and Energy company soon to get in on the action. Not to forget my many non-profit social development corporations....
You are such a tool.
It's time for a third party.

I second that motion...or is it I third that motion:D
remember though, Perot's third party and what happened as a result.
sysint, have you any opening remarks on a third party?
I have been reviewing the platforms of the constitutional party, so let the atheists and socialists now begin the bombing campaigns.
Have you any parties in mind?

Lemme' chop greers asinine rhetoric down and stack it up next to his cordwood full of crap :eek:
8/01 defense bulletin was no different from any other bulletin the president received. The intel was assesed and filed.
Had a competent president been in office pre-GWB, there is no doubt that AQ would not have been in a position to attack. Clinton's admin is directly responsible for 9/11 and everyone knows it. They even enlisted Sandy Berger to hide incriminating classified documents in his shoe to suppress evidence that directly incriminates the previous admin. Reality bites boys.
Furthermore, the current admin, by being proactive, has done a decidedly better job handling gathering threats.
The proofs in the pudding. No attacks on American soil in 6 years, terrorist leaders and their henchmen killed, imprisoned and brought to justice.
What results did the previous admin achieve in the battle against threats to our nation?
LOL
Well according to your "theory" here, if the Clinton administration was directly responsible for the 9/11 attacks, then the Bush Sr. administration must be responsible for the first WTC attack.....
After all, it was right after Clinton took office.

Looks like after the first trade center bombing america and its citizens were safe for 8 years...until Bush was in office.... Hopefully Bush can beat this record....
An attack on american soil will undoubtedly happen again..... we will one day become lax in our defenses.... if the terrorists are not already here, ...working in a 7-11 store raising their americanized family...living the american dream...just waiting for the right time...., it wouldnt take much for terrorists to infiltrate the country thru canada or mexico...procure enough explosives over time and then attack....
glad I live in a small town...... of course I am in an area where the nuclear research industry is alive and well.... but those forkers stick out like a turd in a punchbowl around here.....
We did arrest two suspected terrorists in erwin tennessee here a few years ago at a place called nuclear fuels services but the federal government swept in and took these guys...... never heard about them again..... it weas like the news media just forgot the story...lol
I'll try and hunt up some info on that and post it.

That's quite posible. Who's saying otherwise?
It's the liberals who are in denial about Clinton's inaction and inability to kill OBL when he was directly in the CIA's crosshairs.
Don't blame pasts for present actions.
You're kidding.... right?? How do you think present actions come to a fruition?
By past planning. Duh.
Do you think the people that plot to attack us just wake up, get a cup of coffee and ask their co-conspirators, "What are you going to do today'?
Uh, I think I'll get a few buddies and fly some planes into different structures".
"OK, great. Have a good day".
Pre-planning involves the past.

I see you don't count attacks on American getting killed such as the USS Cole. Those sailors were not Americans by your statement. Nor were the embassy workers killed on Willie's watch. Perhaps the most unsafe place to be if you were an American on Clinton's watch was in Waco Texas. Certainly wasn't Kosovo.

Yes sissy it is time for a third party. Until then we'll go with the lesser of two evils. Are Carbon credits a lie that will get Americans killed and into the middle of a civil war?

You are such a fool.For you to equate Carbon Credits which puts money in Al Gore's pocket http://hvac-talk.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=131700 and denotes what a phony he really is to Iraq, shows who the real sissy is.

You are such a fool. More stupidity by Tin-Dim-Wit. The tool thinks that no Democrats ever supported the war or will support war. Moron.
"lesser of two evils"
Still just a tool. Know nothing parrot. Get an idea. Get a clue.
