Rep. John Conyers delivers petitions to an unidentified aide at the White House Thursday.


WASHINGTON (AP) -- Amid new questions about President Bush's drive to topple Saddam Hussein, several House Democrats urged lawmakers on Thursday to conduct an official inquiry to determine whether the president intentionally misled Congress.

Rep. John Conyers of Michigan and a half-dozen other members of Congress were stopped at the White House gate when they hand-delivered petitions signed by 560,000 Americans who want Bush to provide a detailed response to the so-called Downing Street memo.

2. And they mentioned the obstruction
of eleven votes in one afternoon that the members were complaining about... and about being in a tiny basement room...

I was glad they brought it up in the article..
