4. Inherent contempt of Congress should be on the menu for Harriet
and all those bush lovers who are hiding behind executive privilege. Try them in the House for contempt and send them to jail for two years. I bet you would only have to put a couple of bush lackeys in behind bars before they all start singing.

Unless of course bush pardons them.

8. Visualize Sergeant-At-Arms knocking on her door, before * hides her
in WH & stonewalls Sergeant-at-Arms and co. from legally taking her cuffed to the Constitutionally specified House Trial and later imprisonment if she
does not testify -- UNDER OATH -- for god's sake!!!

What is next, Citizen Arrest by a Million++ WH visitors?!

Visualize */Cheney/Rove/Rice/Rumsfeld et al frog marched out of the People's WH to testify UNDER OATH to their treasonous countless crimes against

AMERICA, IRAQ, the WORLD and MOTHER EARTH (Depleted Uranium Bombs w/ 2.5 BILLION years cancer causing poisons shelf life!!!).

6. All I ask is for Congress to do its job
They can't make Meiers testify, nor can they make the Justice Dept. enforce the law. But they can and should do the job we elected them to do.

With tears in my eyes, I ask if that's too much to ask. Frankly, I am afraid of the answer.
