Congressional Compromise on Subpoenas Reached
.
All congressional committees have agreed to comply with President Bush’s qualifier, that, “We will not go along with a partisan fishing expedition aimed at honorable public servants.”
Given that Rove and Gonzales and a host of others, including of course Mr. Bush, do not meet the definition of honorable public servants there appears to be no conflict to the subpoenas being issued by Congress at this point.
