Whaddaya think...? Will Bushco provide the docs or not...?
my money is on "no..."
not only do i think they won't get the documents, i don't believe they will get anybody there to testify under oath... congress can huff and puff all it wants but you and i both know that bushco will huff and puff right back, claiming "national security," the president's "war-time" powers as commander-in-chief under the aumf, and the "unitary executive" theory as reasons for continuing to do whatever they goddam well please...

Seeking information about detention of terrorism suspects, abuse of detainees and government secrecy, Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee are reviving dozens of demands for classified documents that until now have been rebuffed or ignored by the Justice Department and other agencies.
“I expect real answers, or we’ll have testimony under oath until we get them,” Senator Patrick J. Leahy of Vermont, who will head the committee beginning in January, said in an interview this week. “We’re entitled to know these answers, and in many instances we don’t get them because people are hiding their mistakes. And that’s no excuse.”
