Lautenberg asks, was there a shredding party?
http://www.philly.com/mld/philly/news/12220675.htm

<snip>

Among the senators who signed the bill(sic) were Carl Levin and Debbie Stabenow of Michigan, Hillary Clinton and Charles Schumer of New York, Jon Corzine and Frank Lautenberg of New Jersey, Barbara Boxer and Diane Feinstein of California and Dick Durbin and Barack Obama of Illinois.

Lautenberg introduced a "Web Calendar" being used by Democrats to show the number of days that have passed "since the White House leaked the identity of a CIA agent," the senator said.

"There is no oversight of the White House in this Congress," Lautenberg said. "None - it's a free pass. And that is dangerous for the country."

Lautenberg also spoke on Attorney General Alberto Gonzales' statement Sunday that he notified White House chief of staff Andy Card after the Justice Department opened an investigation into who disclosed Plame's identity, but waited 12 hours to tell anyone else in the administration.

"Was there a 12-hour shredding party at the White House that night?" Lautenberg asked. "We don't know, but I hope that the prosecutor examines this troubling disclosure."

3. But this is the religious Bush House.
Shouldn't they first have held a prayer meeting?
