"Committee chairman John Conyers of Michigan put it this way.

Over the last seven plus years, there have been numerous credible allegations of serious misconduct by officials in the Bush administration. At the same time, the administration has adopted what many would describe as a radical view of its own powers and authorities. As chairman of the Judiciary Committee, I believe it is imperative that we pursue a comprehensive review commensurate to this constitutionally dangerous combination of circumstances. Next Friday's hearings will be an important part of that ongoing effort"

It's a start.

And common sense will finally prevail.

After insisting that a full-scale impeachment of the president would distract from the work of Congress

Hahahahahhaahahahahah. Congress gets distracted for a lot less than this.

And common sense will finally prevail.

Your kidding me right? Without congress troops would have never been landed in Iraq. Both Bush and Congress should be executed on the White House lawn as traitors to liberty and the United States.

Only when they swing from a high branch will common sense have had it's day in the sun.

That Congress was other than present. But Bush the same.
