Senate bitchslaps bush
Apparently it's now "show trials". I hadn't realised Rove and Miers have been locked-up in Guantanamo for four years.

They are only searching for another dark emperor to justify their giving into their dark side. It's simply bush's incompetence they dislike, not what he stands for.

It's fascinating how transparent the Bush neo-con phraseology propaganda machine has become.
Now it's "Witch-hunts", "Show-trials", and always "Partisan politics". When instead, it's a Congressional attempt to get straight answers, while the Bush administration says:
"Sure, we'll give you straight answers. Just not under oath, and without a record being kept. These are "honorable men" you're trying to put on a show-trial."
As the Scooter Libby trial showed, Bush administration answers UNDER oath and WITH a record show quite a difference between reality and what was said. WITHOUT an oath and WITHOUT a record, it becomes very unlikely that the "straight answers" will be true.

But, but - if they don't have anything to hide, they shouldn't have a problem testifying under oath.
I think the Senate should just send a note to Bush:
Mr. President, we have watched and learned from your leadership these past six years, and you have impressed us with your fortitude and dedication to obtaining the truth. In light of our experience and education, we would like to offer your staff an option worthy of your leadership: they can either come to the Capitol and testify under oath, or we can come there and waterboard them and strap electrodes to their genitals. While we understand the latter course is more likely to provide more veracity, in the interest of expedience we're willing to settle for the former.
Love,
Congress
