House Panel Votes to Subpoena Condoleezza Rice - AP

In rapid succession, congressional committees Wednesday ramped up their investigations of the Bush administration by approving a subpoena for Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and granting immunity to a key aide to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales.

By 21-10, the House oversight committee voted to issue a subpoena to Rice to compel her story on the Bush administration's claim, now discredited, that Iraq was seeking uranium from Africa.

*This is just more malicious harrassment of Bush administration officials, but for the Dems to play their dirty little political games with the Secretary of State goes way beyond the pale.

...voted to issue a subpoena to Rice to compel her story on the Bush administration's claim, now discredited, that Iraq was seeking uranium from Africa.

This is an outright lie by the driveby media. In fact the opposite is true, and it is proven fact that Saddam was trying to purchase Nigerian yellowcake.

These people can't reach low enough to insult the president and all those in his administration. As long as the president stands there all by himself and tries to face them down with here and there a lone Republican voicing their displeasure with the Democrats it will keep on.

Mitch! Get those Senators in line!

Nothing on his website about it!


John, do the same in the house!

This is his website.

Why don't you all stand in a group and shout, "We're mad as hell and we're not going to take it anymore!"

We need solidarity for a change. Please stop throwing one another under the bus!

It's time for the GOP to fight back. Digging up dirt on the s who are responsible for this is a good way to start.

The Clintons knew that the best defense was a good offense...they were good at it.

Rice on Subpoena: I Won't Testify in Person
AP

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Thursday she has already answered the questions she has been subpoenaed to answer before a congressional committee and suggested she is not inclined to comply with the order.

Rice said she would respond by mail to questions from the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee on the Bush administration's prewar claims about Saddam Hussein seeking weapons of mass destruction, but signaled she would not appear in person.

*Thank you Madam Secretary for not giving in to a bunch of petty tyrants whose only purpose is to try to humiliate you in front of TV cameras.
