Dems to White House: you have 10 days, a-holes
From John Conyers' and Pat Leahy's letter to White House shyster Fred Fielding:
Please provide the documents compelled by the subpoenas without further delay. If you continue to decline to do so, you should immediately provide us with the specific factual and legal bases for your claims regarding each document withheld via a privilege log as described above and a copy of any explicit determination by the President with respect to the assertion of privilege. You have until July 9, 2007, at 10 a.m. to bring this and any other information you wish to submit to our attention before we move to proceedings to rule on your claims and consider whether the White House is in contempt of Congress.TPM explains what could happen next:
A contempt vote in committee is the first step, to be followed by a vote in the full House or Senate. Experts say the process has never gotten further. But if the clash between Congress and the White House continued, the next step would be a referral to the District of Columbia’s U.S. attorney to enforce the subpoena by seeking an indictment from a grand jury.Like any of that will happen... still, its nice to dream.

No, not likely to happen.
Not when it is the covert wing of the Fascist party "investigating" the overt wing of the Fascist party.
Either stop voting for the same damn pre-approved politicians offered up by msm, or live with the consequences like you witnessed at the USSC this week.
