The senate judiciary committee voted on Thursday for subpoenas if officials close to George Bush, the US president, refuse voluntarily to provide sworn testimony to congress.Can we allow this Sort Of Vulgarity, and it's on going demands for more vulgarity, simply because SOME in Congress can not accept the Divinity Of Dubya as Demanded By the Argument From Intelligent Design....

Bush has said he will oppose any attempt to compel aides to testify in public and under oath in continuing inquiries into whether the dismissals of the prosecutors were politically motivated.
The senate committee authorised subpoenas of Karl Rove, Bush's chief political strategist, along with Harriet Miers, former White House counsel, and William Kelley, deputy White House counsel.

"We're told that we can have a closed-door meeting with no transcript, not under oath, limited number of people, and the White House will determine what the agenda is. That, to me, is nothing," said Patrick Leahy, a Democrat who chairs the judiciary committee.

Just because they do not BELIEVE in the Divinity Of Dubya is no reason for them to lower the Quality of Public Discuourse to mere Fact Based Assertions.
