Adding my 2 cents worth to Jim's post

let's get something straight here... you can call it a deepening "political" clash if you have to paint it as a partisan confrontation, you can call it a deepening "legal" clash if you want to, because, after all, it WILL definitely have legal implications, but what it's REALLY all about is yet another attempt to restore the balance of powers and the oversight authority as laid down in the united states constitution...

Senate Democrats called for a perjury investigation against Attorney General Alberto Gonzales on Thursday and subpoenaed top presidential aide Karl Rove in a deepening political and legal clash with the Bush administration.

"It has become apparent that the attorney general has provided at a minimum half-truths and misleading statements," four Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee wrote in a letter to Solicitor General Paul Clement.

as much as i would like to see a frog-march and/or a perp walk TOMORROW (or, preferably, even later today), i understand that this is another step that must be taken...

meanwhile, the torrent of bullshit from the white house continues unabated...

In response, White House spokesman Tony Fratto said, "Every day congressional Democrats prove that they're more interested in headlines than doing the business Americans want them to do. And Americans are now taking notice that this Congress, under Democratic leadership, is failing to tackle important issues," he said.

there is NOTHING more important that congress could be tackling than restoring our constitution... NOTHING...!
