I Can Tell You Right Now That The White House Will Not Respond To The Subpoenas
And this is what they will say, any documents that may exist concerning internal discussions are working documents and not subject to review by anyone. They will also claim that any documents developed during or preceding any review of the program are classified.

After making those claims all they have to do is wait for Justice Roberts and the gang of 4 to affirm the White House position.

5. The public at large needs to know. It will not work.
Not any more. We are all hungry for open government.It's time for an eager public to feast on some corrupt republicon scandal. It's time to clean the bones of this corporate administrations and start anew with full disclosure.

6. The bigger they come, the harder they fall...
right now I'd say Cheney is about the size of a Sauroposeidon. I choose to believe that our Constitution is bigger, and will eventually lay him flat. Perhaps I'm kidding myself, but that's what I choose to believe.

7. Congress has two choices
If the WH doesn't respond, Congress must either impeach or admit dictatorship. Then they should go home and stop wasting our tax money.

9. Pretty sure bet.
They will wait it out or get the new crony court to get them off the hook. It's how a constitution is overthrown.

11. Here's what to do
Bring contempt charges to Condi and Gonzo.

That'll show Dick that ignoring subpoenas has consequences.

15. The WH won't respond because they don't have to do so.
Contempt charges will need to be filed. If Congress files those, the matter will go to the Courts and the time will run out the clock. Congress could send Marshals to arrest the persons that refuse to comply but that action is highly doubtful.

18. Highly doubtful with this bunch of chickenshit Dems in power. They'd never have the balls
to have the thugs arrested.

16. I agree. Condi has yet to answer HER subpoena. We all know where she's getting HER orders from.
There's no way in hell they will respond. It's Impeachment or NOTHING. The courts are stacked in their favor. Taking this to court will go nowhere. They MUST IMPEACH.
