Finally, Some Answers on NSA Domestic Spying?

The Senate Judiciary Committee has made at least nine formal requests for documents regarding the NSA's domestic spying programs, but the Bush Administration has refused to hand anything over. The stonewalling may finally cease now that the committee has voted to issue subpoenas, with Chairman Leahy openly questioning what the Administration has to hide.

A list of the documents Leahy and the committee hope to uncover can be found here.

And when He stonewalls the subpoenas? When are we going to find the guts to impeach?

That is a pretty lame defense of this illegal domestic spying program. Remember, domestic spying and monitoring of citizens is closely restricted for a reason--historically speaking, our government has carried it to unreasonable and totally unnecessary lengths. Hindsight may be 20-20, but here we have the opportunity to use history to make the right choice, and this administration is ignoring it.
