I believe, and I could be wrong here, that Congress doesn't have the authority to ask for "supenas" in this case.

So you might want to research this, Truthdoesntmatter, before you look like a full blown retard.....

oh wait... too late.

again.. how many cats are you surrounded by?

They're out of power now. Get over it, and be glad that Congress didn't waste our tax dollars on impeaching Gonzalez.

This was an ideological battle from the word go with the Bush administration.
Take a look at the CPA set up in Iraq with Paul Bremer as head of that and you will see the analogies with the Justice Department administration during the early Bush years.
Criteria for hiring for the head of the Banking and Finance wing of the Coalitional Provisional Authority headed by Bremer:
1. What is your position on abortion?
2. What is your position on gay marriage?
and on and on and on.
Look into it, this was true and kids right out of college were put into these high positions over there based ON IDEOLOGY ONLY.
Is ideology a factor in the Justice Department in most administrations? Well of course but in the Bush administration where pay back to the religous right was always the monkey on the back it was huge.
Thank the current administration for putting this one to rest.
Now watch the right wing kooks claim it was all a communist plot because they heard Rush say so.

Wait what? Congress doesn't ever consider whether to impeach an AG you buffoon. In fact Congress can't fire an AG, or any other cabinet member for ANY reason. The President can fire him/her . All Congress can do is request that a special prosecutor be named to investigate any wrongdoing they suspect.


BY the way TM, it's SUBPOENA , I suggest you download Firefox with built in spell check and that won't happen again.

Nonelitist,


Are you trying to suggest that the only proper way to demand the resignation of a cabinet official is if he's committed an indictable offense?

Weak.

just because something wasn't criminal doesn't mean he wasn't unethical.

he deserved to be fired for acting in ways prohibited by the canons of ethics.

he was an embarrassment...

and you talk about other people being nasty?



only a psycotic demonizes everyone who disagrees with them, freak.

and yes... canons of ethics... coming from an attorney who is required to live by them.

i know that ethics is something that's beyond your ken, but we take it pretty seriously.

Gee, really?

Since 1797 the House of Representatives has impeached sixteen federal officials. These include two presidents, a cabinet member, a senator, a justice of the Supreme Court, and eleven federal judges.

Open mouth, insert foot. Or trotter, if you're a pig.

And that is good. Put the shoe on the other foot and the right wing would have shot gunned an indictment up the other party's ass.
Called ideological bias and the right wing is far worse than the liberals are.
Used to be the other way around when we had real conservatives.

I could be wrong, but I don't believe Congress has any authority over who the President or his Cabinet fires.

Isn't that part of the separation of the branches?
