Get wolfowitz under oath at these hearings and ask him about the DSM
He isn't in the cabinet anymore, I would suppose he is fair game now.
He was willing to talk about the run-up to the Atlantic a while back, why not at a hearing?

1. I'd like to see Tenet get a subpoena or two myself.
He has some tales to tell, no doubt.

2. Getting any of them to tell the truth is like...
threading a needle in a hurricane.

4. We can it hear it now...
Senator, I cannot accurately recall my conversation with any of the defendants in this instance.

It would be unwise for me to speculate what was going through president bush's small mind during that meeting.

And whatever bullshit would be spewed onto the table to protect their places in history and to keep them out of jail.

6. Jail is too good for them...how about we...
Send them over to Iraq and let them loose in the streets they caused to run with blood, and see just how far these courageous fighter for justice get.

I say 4 feet.

5. These were not "hearings", they were an unofficial
gathering, with no subpoena powers and no official standing. Toothless.

7. Only the party in power can issue subpoenas..It will NEVER happen
Edited on Thu Jun-16-05 05:19 PM by SoCalDem
and "party-loyal" who ended up with one, would be so pissed to be under oath..they would spill their guts on all the others:).WE would love it, but none of the ones in charge would dare ... even if they wanted to:(

9. Is that true about the subpoenas? Conyers hinted that
subpoenas might be used for follow-up DSM hearings. :shrug:

8. There is a way to do that.
By using a special counsel prosecutor Wolfowitz can be brought in....But it all starts with interviews and testimony and that's what we're going to see.
