It was during that mockery they called a 9-11 investigation. Bush* was called to testify and he would not do so unless Cheney was with him and their testimony could not be public or transcribed or under oath..Is there any precedent at all for something like that?

3. I believe this question is quite embarrassing for Republicans.
It is very difficult to justify such behavior even by the most right wing radical..

5. The same principle by which a dummy cannot perform without a ventriloquist?
No, simpler: the principle by which GOPers are above the law. Yeah, that's it.
